Drought is significant abiotic stress that affects the development and yield of many crops. The present study to investigate effect arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) biochar on root morphological traits, growth, physiological traits in soybean under water stress. Impact AMF spores number soil enzymes' activities were studied drought conditions. After 40 days, plant growth parameters measured. negatively affected parameters, microbial biomass, enzyme activities. Biochar individually increase...
Azotobacter chroococcum strain W5 (MTCC 25045) is an effective diazotrophic bacterium with plant growth-promoting traits. Here, we report the draft genome assembly of this biologically and agronomically evaluated A. strain. The in 55 contigs 4,617,864 bp long, a G+C content 66.83%.
