Abstract

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial bacteria that colonize plant roots andenhance plant growth by a wide variety of mechanisms. The objective of the present study was to isolate, characterized and determine the antimicrobial enzymes produced by PGPR associated with rhizosphere of carob tree. A total of fifteen different bacteria colonies were isolated and proceed with in vitro screening for plant growth promoting activities; phosphate solubilization, nitrogen fixation, indole acetic acid (IAA) content, exopolysaccharides content, ammonia production and antimicrobial enzymes (cellulose, chitinase and protease) activity. Among the fifteen bacterial strains, all bacterial strains are unable to produce ammonia, fifteen (100%) IAA production, three (20%) phosphate solubilizing activity, fourteen (93%) Exopolysaccharides production, seven (47%) nitrogen fixation activity, two (13%) cellulase syntheses, five (33%) Protease activity and one (7%) Chitinase activity.
