Bacillus megaterium

Bacillus megaterium is a phosphate-solubilizing bacterium that converts insoluble phosphates into plant-available soluble forms, primarily through the secretion of organic acids. Its application in the soil enhances phosphorus uptake, promoting healthier plant growth. Inoculation with this bacterium has been shown to increase crop yields by 5?50%, making it an effective tool for improving soil fertility and productivity.
