Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are important strains for studying and producing microbial fertilizers and pesticides. They can promote nutrients absorptivity for plants, produce plant hormones, inhibit microbial diseases and enhance the systemic resistance of plants. It has important application value in solving the problem of saline-alkali soil. In terms of strain characteristics research, the strain has the ability to reduce protein and depot potassium. The highest salinity tolerance is 16% in a solid medium. The highest salinity tolerance is 15% in a liquid medium. The range of acid and alkali resistance is from 5 to 8. It has obvious antagonistic effect on Ralstonia solanacearum, Bacillus subtilis and Fusarium moniliforme.
