Bacillus spp. Mediated Growth Enhancement and Antioxidative Defence Activation in Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.).
PubMed · 2026-05-28
Soil bacteria naturally found near peppermint roots—especially Bacillus subtilis—can significantly boost the plant's growth, stress defenses, and essential oil production without synthetic fertilizers.
1
Bacillus subtilis increased peppermint chlorophyll content by 64.71% over untreated controls
2
B. subtilis treatment raised the stress-protective compound proline by 43.17% and the antioxidant enzyme catalase by 56.33%
3
All five Bacillus strains tested produced plant-growth-promoting compounds including indole acetic acid, siderophores, and ammonia, but B. subtilis showed the broadest and strongest overall effect
