Earthworm Aporrectodea molleri (oligochaeta)’s coelomic fluid-associated bacteria modify soil biochemical properties and improve maize (Zea mays L.) plant growth under abiotic stress conditions

  This study evaluated the impact of Aporrectodea molleri 's coelomic fluid-associated bacteria (CFB) on Zea mays L. growth and soil biochemical characteristics under abiotic stress conditions, including alkaline soil (pH = 8) and nitrogen (N), phosphate (P), and potassium (K) deficit. Compared...

Description
Summary:  This study evaluated the impact of Aporrectodea molleri 's coelomic fluid-associated bacteria (CFB) on Zea mays L. growth and soil biochemical characteristics under abiotic stress conditions, including alkaline soil (pH = 8) and nitrogen (N), phosphate (P), and potassium (K) deficit. Compared to maize cultivated in uninoculated soil, the effect of CFB on boosting plant growth under abiotic stress was notably exceptional. Different CFB treatments increased significantly root and shoot length by 50% and 21%, respectively. Furthermore, the presence of isolates in soil resulted in a significant increase in plant fresh and dry weights (of up to 113% and 91% for roots, and up to 173% and 44% for shoots), leaf surface (78%), and steam diameter (107%). Overall, soil inoculation with CFB significantly ( P
