Abstract

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is an important vegetable. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial as they colonize roots of plant and accelerate plant growth by different ways. In the present study, the impact of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) like Streptomyces sp. and Bacillus sp. on growth parameters and the production of capsaicin alkaloid are investigated in local variety of chilli. From the results of this investigation, it can be concluded that the seedling treatment of PGPRs can be used as a good technique in the enhancement of yield and alkaloid contents in plant cultivation, as it provides an ecofriendly approach.
