Abstract
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), which promote plant growth, are closely associate with various plants around rhizosphre as well in the plant tissues as endophytes. The present review focus the establishment process of plant associated bacterial diversity and the bacterial genera associated with their plant species. Pseudomonas sp., Serratia sp., Azotobacter sp., Klebsiella sp., Burkholderia sp., Alkaligenes sp. Enterobacter sp., Bacillus polymyxa, Gluconacetobacter sp. Azoarcus sp., Paenibacillus sp., Brevibacterium halotolerans and Pseudomonas putida have been predominantly reported as PGPR.
Key words: PGPR; Rhizobacteria; Diazotroph; Rhizosphere; Microbial diversity
