Discussion

Endophyte Pseudomonas aeruginosa SPT08 improves growth and resists bacterial wilt in tomato, suggesting its agricultural value.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa SPT08 significantly increased tomato plant height by 20% and root weight by 60%, enhancing overall growth.
The endophyte effectively inhibited Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum, providing protection against bacterial wilt disease in tomato plants.
Analysis of SPT08 revealed its production of extracellular enzymes and plant growth-promoting features, supporting its use as a beneficial agent.
Characterization of the SPT08 genome indicated the presence of antibiotic potentials and an array of important coding genes.

Giri et al. (2025) studied this question.
