Abstract

stimulate plant growth. Azospirillum is a microaerophilic, plant growth. Promoting bacterium, grow well in semi-solid medium. In this study, Azospirillum strains were isolated from paddy rhizosphere soil of Thanjavur district. All 30 isolates were analyzed for its nitrogen fixing ability by using Microkjeldhal method. Thus the present study is focused on to identify the highest N2 fixing of Azospirillum strain and compared to each other
