Abstract

This research aims to explore natural and organic sources of plant bio-stimulant such as moringa leaf extract (MLE) and endophytic bacteria isolated from moringa roots to promote seed germination and seedling growth of chilli. Various extraction methods using methanol, ethanol and distilled water were compared to select the best extraction method based on phytochemical properties that could help to alleviate abiotic stresses and enhance root growth. Pre-screened endophytic bacteria with plant growth-promoting traits were also tested for their ability to increase the growth of chilli seedlings. The effects of moringa leaf extract and endophytic bacteria as bio-stimulants on chilli seedlings were determined using plant physiological analyses.
