Abstract

ABSTRACT: Phosphorus is a crucial nutrient needed for crop growth, it plays major role in both as a constituent of plant structural compounds and act as activator for many plant biochemical reactions. Phosphorus is mentioned specifically for its role in absorbing and changing sun’s power into beneficial plant compound. The utilization of phosphatic solubilizing bacteria in agricultural practice might not only best off set the excessive value of synthetic phosphatic fertilizer however additionally solubilize the insoluble phosphorous within the fertilizer and soils to which they applied. Phosphate solubilizing bacteria across the roots of plant life and in soils has been proven to release soluble phosphorous, enhance plant growth and safeguards the vegetation from pathogen attack.
