Abstract:

Tephrosia purpurea, commonly known as “wild indigo,” is a leguminous plant with significant ecological and agricultural importance due to its medicinal properties, soil-improving abilities, and potential as a forage crop. In recent years, there has been growing interest in utilizing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) as biostimulants to enhance crop growth, productivity, and stress tolerance. This research paper explores the potential of PGPR as biostimulants for Tephrosia purpurea, highlighting their mechanisms of action, beneficial effects on plant growth and development, and implications for sustainable agriculture.


Keywords: Tephrosia purpurea, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria
