Meta-analysis of biofertilizer effects of Bacillus species on tomato yield.

ABSTRACT: Beneficial bacteria, especially Bacillus species, are increasingly being utilized as biofertilizers to promote plant growth and development. However, the meta-analysis of Bacillus species that have a biofertilizing effect on tomato yield parameters is not well understood. The objective of the study is to use meta-analytical procedure to resolve uncertainty, identify knowledge gaps, and create new insights using the results of published studies on the biofertilizer effect of Bacillus spp. on yield characteristics of tomato A comprehensive search of Litmaps yielded 398 articles, of which 15 were used in the meta-analysis. All the analyses were carried out using OpenMEE software and a random-effects model was used. Standardised mean differences (SMD) between tomato yield with and without Baci
