Soil antimony pollution and plant growth stage affect the biodiversity of auxin-producing bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of Achillea ageratum L

A total of 4512 rhizobacteria were isolated at three stages of plant growth from Achillea ageratum colonizing a polluted site with an antimony concentration gradient. For 222 of these isolates auxin production ( aux +) was verified in vitro. The percentage of aux + isolates increased with soil antim...
