Speaker: Kevin Johnson, president, Microbial Science Laboratories, LLC

The first part of the slide presentation will focus on individual strains, describing how each one functions in the soil around the roots. The second part of the presentation will focus on groups of microbes and how they interact with each other. Microbes being discussed are Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Pseudomonas, Streptomyces, Trichoderma, Azotobacter, Saccharomyces and Azospirillum. The third part of the presentation shows pictures and testimonials of using groups of microbes to increase root mass and fine root hair development, increase plant growth, increase budding and blooming, increase disease resistance, block excess Ethylene production during stress, increase salinity tolerance, etc.
