Bacillus Megaterium

Bacillus Megaterium

Phosphate solubilizing and plant growth promoting bacterial concentrate

Supports phosphate mobilization, soil biological activity, and plant growth promotion

Bacillus megaterium is a Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterial concentrate widely used in biological agriculture for phosphate solubilization and rhizosphere enhancement. The bacterium converts insoluble phosphate compounds into plant-available forms, improving nutrient availability and supporting healthier crop growth.

In addition to nutrient mobilization, the microbial strain supports plant growth promotion, soil biological activity, and suppression of soil-borne pathogens.

Phosphate Solubilization

Produces enzymes and organic acids that dissolve insoluble phosphate compounds and convert them into plant-available forms.

Plant Growth Promotion

Produces plant growth-promoting substances including:

  • Auxins
  • Gibberellins

These compounds support root development and healthier plant growth.

Enzyme Production

Produces enzymes including:

  • Cellulases
  • Proteases

These enzymes support organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling.

Antagonistic Activity

Produces antimicrobial compounds that suppress soil-borne fungal and bacterial pathogens.

Rhizosphere Colonization

Rapidly establishes around developing roots and supports beneficial root-zone microbial activity.

Soil Biological Enhancement

Improves soil structure, nutrient availability, and soil fertility through biological activity and organic matter decomposition.
