Native mixed microbe inoculants (M1H) optimize soil health to promote <i>Cajanus cajan</i> growth: the soil fungi are more sensitive than bacteria.

ABSTRACT: Microbial inoculant is widely used in plant growth and crop production. However, the effect of native mixed microbial inoculants on soil microbiota and plant growth remain to be elucidated. Here, we used pot experiment for 5 months to determine the microbial inoculants treatments with growth-promoting effect on Cajanus cajan, such as M1P (Serratia marcescens) treatment and M1H treatment: the mixture of M1P and M45N (Paenibacillus polymyxa), and investigate the effect of these inoculants on the capacity of soil nutrients and rhizosphere microbiomes in promoting C. cajan growth. Further, the adaptability of these strains to environmental stress (temperature and pH) was determined by using stress-resistant growth experiment. The results showed that M1H treatment re
