Summary: Canola is the third most common oil-producing crop worldwide, cultivation requires chemical fertilizers but the use can be reduced with plant growth-promoting bacteria; identified endophytic bacteria isolates from canola roots, including Bacillus, Neobacillus, Paenibacillus, Pseudomonas, and Peribacillus genera, some of which efficiently promote canola seedling growth; Paenibacillus and Peribacillus isolates were the most promising biofertilizers for canola crops, particularly due to their sporulated rods trait.
