Abstract

Andrographis paniculata plants were treated with various plant growth promoting microorganisms incorporated into the experimental field included Bacillus megaterium (B), Trichoderma harzianum (T), Funneliformis mosseae (F) and consortia of F. mosseae and T. harzianum (FT), B. megaterium and T. harzianum (BT), F. mosseae and B. megaterium (FB) exposed to irrigated and drought soil conditions were tested for their antimicrobial activities on gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The methanolic extract prepared after different microbial treatments of A. paniculata plants under drought stress was more potent in inhibiting the bacterial growth of both gram positive (Paenibacillus polymyxa) and gram negative bacterium (Xanthomonas campestris) than under irrigated condition. Experimental results showed compatibility between consortia of F. mosseae and B. megaterium and was found to enhance antimicrobial activity of A. paniculata plant maximally among all other microbial treatments under drought stress.
