Study of the physiological and biochemical characteristics of Cupriavidus metallidurans YX16 and growth-promoting on maize seedlings under salt stress.
Findings indicate that Cupriavidus metallidurans YX16 is a salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) that effectively alleviates salt-induced damage and promotes maize growth, providing a basis for the development of microbial agents for the amelioration of saline-alkali soils.
