Environmental and genetic factors influence crop yields. Microbes that help plants and increase agricultural yields can be used in place of chemical fertilisers and pesticides. Pseudomonas and Bacillus species are the most commonly encountered plant growth-promoting bacteria. Bacillus, unlike the pathogen Pseudomonas, is capable of reproducing itself in a laboratory setting through spore production. Individuals in this genus can also withstand extreme temperatures for an extended period of time. Bacillus species produce metabolites that stimulate plant development as well as pathogen defence. Insight into the physiological changes in crops caused by Bacillus spp. infection is limited, and more research is needed to protect crops from potentially harmful environmental factors. In order for the crop to grow properly, they must gradually release nutrients into the soil solution. Their presence promotes microbe growth because they provide a source of energy and nutrients. Based on this experiment, the Bacillus GK 15 isolate on green gram showed increased shoot and root length, chlorophyll, and 100% seed germination. As a result of the use of the Bacillus GK 15 isolate, a successful and advanced strategy for mitigating these effects and maintaining long-term agricultural output has emerged.
