| Summary: | Abstract PGPR has a higher potential impact on agricultural crops. It enhances plant growth and development in a variety of adverse environmental conditions, including biotic and abiotic stresses. The PGPR is commercially vital since it is more efficient, safe for the environment, and beneficial to the economy. Nowadays, salt stress has an impact on the agricultural ecosystem. Salt-tolerant PGPR can directly stimulate plant growth and development by producing a variety of metabolites and phytohormones. The current study looked at the isolation of salt-tolerant bacterial species and their ability to stimulate plant development. Four bacterial species were chosen for their better salt stress tolerance (0–5%). They were identified by 16S rRNA sequencing: Solibacillus silvestris BR1, Peribacillus frigoritolerans BR2, Paenibacillus taichungensis CR1, and Solibacillus isronensis CR2. These strains were positive production of indole acetic acid with varying incubation periods (19.66 ± 1.528 to 646.111 ± 8.058 µg/mL), salt stress (ranging from 29.556 ± 1.171 to 147.8111 ± 2.086 µg/mL), phosphate solubilization (0.145 ± 0.011 to 0.921 ± 0.007 µg/mL), ammonium production (0.299 ± 0.047 to 1.202 ± 0.142 µg/mL), HCN production (0.308 ± 0.051 to 4.269 ± 0.069 µg/mL), and siderophore production (0.190 ± 0.064 to 1.543 ± 0.108 µg/mL) for control strains were used without salt stress. The production level was expressed using a standard curve containing various standards. |
