MICROBIAL COMPOSITION OF THE RHIZOSPHERE OF FERULA KUHISTANICA GROWING IN UZBEKISTAN
Keywords:
Ferula kuhistanica, rhizosphere, bacteriaAbstract
This study investigates the rhizosphere microbiota of Ferula kuhistanica, a species belonging to the Ferula genus. The results were compared with those of Ferula sinkiangensis. In the rhizosphere of F. kuhistanica, Firmicutes (50%) and Proteobacteria (42.5%) were found to be dominant. The observed differences in microbial composition between the two species are likely due to variations in environmental conditions and geographical distribution. The bacterial communities identified in the rhizosphere are considered to possess plant growth-promoting traits and potential biotechnological significance.
