Effectiveness of rhizobacteria containing ACC deaminase for growth promotion of peas (Pisum sativum) under drought conditions.
TL;DR: It is highly likely that rhizobacteria containing ACC deaminase might have decreased the drought-stress induced ethylene in inoculated plants, which resulted in better growth of plants even at low moisture levels, and could help in eliminating the inhibitory effects of drought stress on the growth of peas.

Rhizobacteria Capable of Producing ACC-deaminase May Mitigate Salt Stress in Wheat
TL;DR: The results suggest that the assay for ACC-deaminase activity could be an efficient approach to screen effective PGPR for increasing the growth and yield of wheat under salt-stressed conditions.

Screening rhizobacteria for improving the growth, yield, and oil content of canola (Brassica napus L.)
TL;DR: Results indicated that simultaneous screening of rhizobacteria for growth promotion under gnotobiotic conditions and in vitro production of auxins could be a useful approach for selecting effective PGPR.
