Performance of soybeans inoculated with multifunctional microorganisms under water‐deficit stress
Abstract Soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) are mainly grown in Brazil during the rainy season. However, there are typically periods of rainfall deficiency, which causes water‐deficit stress to the crop. Plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can help alleviate these stresses by inducing water deficit tolerance.
