Characterization of an Endophytic Antagonistic Bacterial Strain Bacillus halotolerans LBG-1-13 with Multiple Plant Growth-Promoting Traits, Stress Tolerance, and Its Effects on Lily Growth

Figure 6

The effect of inoculation of endophytic bacteria LBG-1-13 on Tresor and Bright Dimond. Development of the root system of Lilium variety Tresor. (a) Inoculation with LBG-1-13; (b) control (inoculation with only LB medium). Extending the growth period of Lilium variety, Bright Diamond, by the strain LBG-1-13. After inoculation for more than 3 months, the inoculated lily plants still have much more green leaves (d) when compared to uninoculated control plants (c).
