Advantage of phosphorus solubilizing bacteria in bitter gourd

Advantage of phosphorus solubilizing bacteria in bitter gourd
  • Phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) are helpful in providing phosphorus as well as micronutrients to the plant.
  • Encourages faster root growth for water and nutrient uptake.
  • PSB produces organic acids like malic, succinic, fumaric, citric, tartaric acid, and acetic acid which fastens the P2O5 uptake, maturity and increases yield.
  • Increase resistance towards diseases and drought tolerance due to rapid cell development in the plants.
  • Reduce 25 – 30% phosphatic fertilizer requirement.
