Epiphytic PGPB <i>Bacillus megaterium</i> AFI1 and <i>Paenibacillus nicotianae</i> AFI2 Improve Wheat Growth and Antioxidant Status under Ni Stress

The present study demonstrates the Ni toxicity-ameliorating and growth-promoting abilities of two different bacterial isolates when applied to wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i> L.) as the host plant. Two bacterial strains tolerant to Ni stress were isolated from wheat seeds and selected ba...
