									  Abstract: The plant growth promoting properties of bacteria were investigated for siderophore, hydrogen cyanide, nitrogen fixer, phosphorus solubilizing and potassium solubilizing activities at various 
temperatures (30oC, 40oC and 50oC). The results showed that the bacterial strains Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 
subp. Plantarum B8, Bacillus tequilensis B24, Cronobacter sakazakii BFC8, Pseudomonas azotoformans C2-114 
and Bacillus cereus H1702 were able to promote plant growth at these temperatures. Cellulase activity was 
presented in five bacterial isolates. In addition, ACC deaminase activity was found in all isolates at 30 oC, 
whilst this activity ended at 50 oC under non-stress and stress conditions. The effects of inoculation 
of 5 bacterial strains on the growth of Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) under different water 
levels, field capacity (FC) and 50% FC, was also studied. The highest growth parameters of Jerusalem 
artichoke were observed in the treatment of bacteria immobilized on pulp paper sludge cake fertilizer 
under field capacity. However, no significant difference was found with chemical treatment under 
100% FC and 50% FC. Those bacterial strains which immobilized on agricultural substrate were able 
to enhance the growth of Jerusalem artichoke under both normal and water limitation conditions.  |
