Article: Report summarizes basic microbiology study findings from Chungbuk National University.

According to a study from South Korea, "Thiosulfate oxidizing bacteria isolated from crop plants were tested for their traits related to plant growth promotion and their ability to solubilize Morocco rock phosphate (RP) through oxidation of thiosulfate to sulfuric acid. All the tested strains grew in Nfb medium (except Dyella ginsengisoli) and possessed beta-1,3 glucanase activity (except Burkholderia kururiensis)."

"Of the fourteen tested strains, 2 were found positive for siderophore production, 3 each for phytohormones (IAA), and salicylic acid production. Based on qualitative and quantitative assays, 5 strains were found to efficiently solubilize tri-calcium ...
