Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria promote plant size inequality [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractThe uniformity of crop yield is extremely important for consumers and of as much relevance to the grower as overall yield. However, size inequality within a plant population is rarely measured and has never before been considered in relation to the use of beneficial microbes for yield enhancement.
