Abstract: Salt marshes of Dandi are well known for India's Independence Movement, when Mahatma Gandhi undertook the Salt Satyagraha also known as Dandi March in 1930. Bacterial isolate 36 was isolated from Dandi was characterized for its plant growth promoting (PGP) potential. It was examined for P solubilisation (45 µg/ml), ammonia production (9.4 µg/ml) and IAA production (18 µg/ml). Isolate produced siderophore as it showed orange halos on CAS agar. Isolate showed positive HCN production, whereas, negative in starch hydropysis and chitinase production. Isolate was identified by VITEK 2 as Pseudomonas aeruginosa AP. PGP efficacy was tested by talcum based formulation on green gram and black gram. Experiment was comprised four treatment T1= Seed (unsterilized-soil), T2 = Seed (sterilized-soil), T3= bio formulated seed (unsterilized-soil) and T4 = bio formulated seed (sterilized-soil) using CRD. T4 is statistical significant compared to other treatments. Thus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa AP can be used effectively as PGPR.
