Isolation of Heavy Metal-Tolerant and Anti-Phytopathogenic Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria from Soils.

ABSTRACT: In this study, multifunctional soil bacteria, which can promote plant development, resist heavy metals, exhibit anti-phytopathogenic action against plant diseaes, and produce extracellular enzymes, were isolated to improve the effectiveness of phytoremediation techniques. In order to isolate multifunctional soil bacteria, a variety of soil samples with diverse characteristics were used as sources for isolation. To look into the diversity and structural traits of the bacterial communities, we conducted amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene on five types of soils and predicted functional genes using Tax4Fun2. The isolated bacteria were evaluated for their multifunctional capabilities, including heavy metal tolerance, plant growth promotion, anti-phytopathogenic activity, and extracellular
