Abstract:
The research results of the growth-promoting effects of endophytic bacteria on Phyllostachys edulis indicated that the growth-promoting endophytic bacteria could improve photosynthesis in P. edulis leaves. The photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, and the stomatal conductance in P. edulis treated with endophytic bacteria were all higher than in the control group. Endophytic bacteria could also increase the chlorophyll content and the protective enzyme activities in P. edulis, improving their reactions to the adverse environmental conditions. Through injection treatments with growth-promoting endophytic bacteria, the catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase activity, soluble protein content, and soluble sugar content in P. edulis were all higher than in the control group, except for the malondialdehyde content, which was lower than in the control group.
