Phosphorus (P) is one of the most essential macro-elements vital to increase soil fertility growth and development of plants. However, the occurrences of phosphorus in complex form make it in soluble and in accessible. Hence the objective of the present study was to isolate and characterize phosphate solubilizing bacteria from agricultural field soil sample of Afar region of Dupti wereda, and in south Gondar Zone Kimir-Dingay district Deskua kebele, and to assess their capability to solubilize phosphates This study was conducted from Institute of Biotechnology Department of biotechnology cellular and microbial laboratory in Gondar university. Thus, Phosphate solubilizing bacteria were isolated and characterized morphologically, biochemically. Total of ten phosphate solubilizing bacteria were isolated from the selected site. The isolates were coded as DU1, DU2 DU3, DU4, DU5, DU6, DE1, .. View More»
