Salinity is one of the major constraints, whichhamper agricultural
production. The higherconcentration of salts in root zone may
stimulateendogenous ethylene biosynthesis in roots,
whichconsequently inhibits its growth. One of the majormechanism
utilized by plant growth promotingrhizobacteria (PGPR) to
facilitate plant growth anddevelopment is the lowering of ethylene
levels in theplant roots by deamination
of1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), theimmediate
precursor of ethylene in plants. In thegiven study, three
pre-isolated bacterial strainshaving ACC deaminase activity were
used forinoculation of wheat seeds. Inoculated seeds weresown in
salt affected field, fertilized with NPK@120-100-60 kg ha-1,
respectively. Data regardingvarious growth parameters and yield
parameters wasrecorded at the time of harvesting and
statisticallyanalyzed. From data it was concluded that plantgrowth
promoting rhizobacteria containingACC-deaminase activity can
enhance the growth andyield of wheat under salinity stress field
conditionsand the strain ACC10 performs the best.
