Analysis of copper tolerant rhizobacteria from the industrial belt of Gujarat, western India for plant growth promotion in metal polluted agriculture soils
Remediation of Cu toxicity in agricultural sites polluted by industrial effluents. Cu tolerance index determined the extent of Cu contamination. Culture dependent (CD) DGGE reveals diversified rhizobacterial communities. Pseudomonas and Enterobacter sp. are predominant in polluted agricultural sites. Enterobacter sp. P36 alleviated the Cu toxicity to mung bean plants.
