Using plant growth promoting rhizobacteria to mitigate effects of soil drying in pea ( Pisum sativum ) and lettuce (Lactuca sativa )

The early stages of drought affect plant hormonal homeostasis, including root to shoot signalling. This thesis focuses on manipulating this signalling (to enhance plant drought tolerance) by adding bacterial inocula (Variovorax paradoxus 5C-2 or Bacillus subtilis IR15) to the rhizosphere of pea and...
