Salinity severely affects the growth and productivity of Vigna radiate (mung bean) worldwide. Approximately 50 mM concentration of NaCl can cause >60% yield loss of mung bean. In this study, inoculation of salt-tolerant root nodule-associated plant growth-promoting bacteria showed 23-fold enhancements in mung bean plant growth, biomass, and physiology even at 2 and 10% salinity stress. Further, the inoculated mung bean plants showed an increment in the uptake of nitrogen and phosphorous in the salinized conditions and mobilized the Na+ ions from root to shoot to reduce the toxicity posed by Na+ ions. Therefore the strains identified in this study could be formulated to mitigate the salinity stress and improve the mung bean growth in salinized soils.
