The present study aimed to isolate potential plant growth rhizobacteria (PGPR) from various crops in agricultural areas in Ağrı-Turkey and their characterization. For this goal, rhizospheric soil samples of wheat, barley and trefoil were collected from 12 different locations in Ağrı province. Bacteria isolation studies were carried out with these rhizospheric samples. Then, to determine the PGPR properties of each isolate; nitrogen fixation, phosphate dissolution, siderophore, ammonia and HCN production tests were performed. Molecular identification of active isolates determined as suitable for development of biofertilizers, biostimulants and/or bioprotectants was done by PCR and sequencing applications performed with universal 16S rRNA primers. According to the results, 29 potential PGPR isolates were determined and their molecular characterization was done. These isolates were distributed in Arthrobacter, Bacillus, Brevibacterium, Enterobacter, Pantoea, Pseudomonas, Microbacterium and Stenotrophomonas according to their 16S rRNA sequence similarities.
