PGPR Growth Promotion Mechanisms in Groundnut Direct Production of plant growth regulators (Kishore et al. , 2005, Dey et al. 2004) Nitrogen fixation (NPR, Kloepper et al. , 1991) Uptake of minerals (Increase in available P, Dey et al 2004) Root colonization (Kishore et al. 2005) Indirect Prevent the deleterious effect of phytopathogens (Anjaiah et al. 2006, Abd-Allah and El Didamony 2007) ISR (Priming) Positive-Maria Laura Tonelli et al. 2011 Negative-Zhang et al. 2001
