| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT: Nine identified bacterial strains were selected out of 48 isolates collected from various areas in the upper Western region of the Nile Delta in Egypt. Such 9 strains proved to be the most biofertilizing bacterial agents among all via laboratory examinations. A greenhouse pot experiment was carried out in order to ascertain the capability of those strains as effective diazotrophs for wheat plants. Influence of soil moisture content and salinity was included. | ||
