First report of Isolation and Characterization of endophytic bacteria (Microbacterium foliorum) from Artemisia dracunculus in Iran

Endophytice bacteria promotes plant growth of different herbals by various process such as nitrogen fixation, solubilization of phosphate, production of phytohormones, sidrophore, posing antagonistic activity and induce high biotic and abiotic resistance for plants. Sustainable agriculture emphasizes yield improvement without negative affect on environment, Through the current study, the presence as Microbacterium foliorum endophytic bacteria was identified from Artemisia dracunculus in Iran for the first time, By further research about plant growth promoting feature of them, medicinal plant-based industries improved to achieve their commercial success and plant maintenance facilitate in sustainable ecosystems.
