Isolation and Selection of Biological Nitrogen Fixing and indole-3-Acetic Acid Synthesizing Bacteria from Different Cropping Systems in Soc Trang province, Vietnam

Abstract

Indigenous microorganism (IMO) has great potential in agricultural uses since they have high ability in biodegradation, nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, plant growth hormone production as well as bio-control. However, deeply scientific knowledge about IMO has been limited and should be elucidated. The aim of this study was to isolate bacteria having both functions in biological nitrogen fixation and indole-3-acetic acid synthesis from IMO in different farming ecosystems in Soc Trang province, Vietnam.
