Effects of Pseudomonas Strains on Growth and Nutrient Uptake of Thymus Vulgaris L.

In this study, the effects of Pseudomonas on growth, nutrient uptake, and essential oil of Thymus Vulgaris, was evaluated. The Pseudomonas treatments were included with p41, p159, p169, p187, that were compared with the control (without the effects of bacteria). The results were demonstrated that the maximum of plant height (30.26 cm), shoot fresh weight (28.83 gr), roots fresh weight (2.26 gr), shoot dry weight(3.16gr), root dry weight(0.29 gr), the essential oil(1.38%), shoot nitrogen content (2.4%), the shoot phophorus content(0.22%), shoot calcium content( 1.55%), shoot potassium content (2.76%) shoot magnesium content(0.31%), found on the treatment of p187.
