Discussion

Field study reveals rhizobial strains enhance yield and nutrient uptake in tomatoes, suggesting potential for sustainable farming.

Inoculation with rhizobial strains improved tomato fruit yield and nutrient uptake while reducing heavy metal accumulation.
Rhizobium sp. ACO-34A significantly increased fruit number, size, and overall yield in tomatoes.
Assessment included plant performance metrics and rhizosphere community analysis through 16S rRNA sequencing.
These findings support incorporating microbial biofertilizers into conventional farming systems for enhanced productivity.

Manzano-Gómez et al. (2025) studied this question.
