Wheat roots rhizoscanning image under different saline conditions (0 mmol–200 mmol) for 10 days treated with Bacillus strains (NMCN1, FZB42 and LLCG23) in a greenhouse experiment. (A) Visually gives the information regarding the effect of Bacillus strains on root morphology. The effect of selected strains on root morphological parameters (B) i.e., (a) wheat root total root length (mm) post inoculation of Bacillus strains grown under different salt stress conditions, (b) roots diameter (mm), (c) root total surface area (cm²), (d) number of root tips for each treatment. The error bars shown on the graphs represent the mean standard deviation of each treatment (n = 3). The small letters were used to show significant difference among the treatments calculated through Tukey’s HSD test at p ≤ 0.05. The experiment was repeated thrice with three replicates for each treatment.
