Fig. 1From: Accumulation of beneficial bacteria in the rhizosphere of maize (Zea mays L.) grown in a saline soil in responding to a consortium of plant growth promoting rhizobacteriaThe effects of P8/P10/X52 consortium on maize growth in substrates supplied with 0.3% NaCl. In sand: a the shoot length of maize; b the root length of maize; c the shoot dry weight; d the root dry weight of maize. In soil: e the shoot length of maize; f the root length of maize; g the shoot dry weight; h the root dry weight of maize. CK, control. ** indicates the significant difference (p < 0.01) for treatments inoculated with P10/P8/X52 consortium compared with control (CK)Back to article page
