Two Novel Bacterial Species, Rhodanobacter lycopersici sp. nov. and Rhodanobacter geophilus sp. nov., Isolated from the Rhizosphere of Solanum lycopersicum with Plant Growth-Promoting Traits.

ABSTRACT: Two novel bacterial species were isolated from the rhizosphere of Solanum lycopersicum (tomato plant), both exhibiting plant growth-promoting properties. Two isolated strains, Rhodanobacter lycopersici sp. nov. Si-c^T and Rhodanobacter geophilus sp. nov. S2-g^T, were classified through a polyphasic approach, confirming their novel status within the Rhodanobacter genus. The strains demonstrated a remarkable tolerance to extreme pH conditions, with R. lycopersici Si-c^T surviving in pH 3.0-13.0 and R. geophilus S2-g^T tolerating pH 2.0-13.0. Additionally, both strains exhibited multiple plant growth-promoting traits, including indole-3-acetic acid and ammonia production, phosphate solubilization,
