Influence of permafrost microorganisms on morphophysiological indicators of spring wheat by A. M. Subbotin, M. V. Narushko, N. A. Bome, S. A. Petrov, V. A. Malchevskiy, M. A. Gabdullin

“…It is proposed that the increase in morphophysiological indicators of spring wheat variety Irgina is also a consequence of stimulation of the photosynthesis system and, consequently, an increased efficiency of absorption of light energy. Considering how differently different strains of bacteria isolated from permafrost influence the morphological and physiological and biochemical parameters of the plant, it appears that these strains or their combinations can be used for the development of biologics ensuring a comprehensive effect.…”
