In present study, the efficiency of some Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) (Bacillus licheniformis CKA 1, Bacillus subtilis CB 8 A, Bacillus sp. RG1, Bacillus sp. S1 and Bacillus sp. S2) was evaluated to know their effects on plant growth, yield and leaf nutrient status of strawberry cv. Chandler during 2013-14. These PGPR were applied through root dip method, foliar application and root + foliar application methods. It was observed that the root + foliar application of PGPR gave best results with respect to growth, yield and leaf nutrient status as compared to other application methods. The maximum plant height (29.93 cm) and number of crowns (4.93/plant) were observed in T9 and plant spread (38.00 cm) in T3 whereas, leaf area (137.34 cm2) and plant biomass (47.67 g/ plant) were maximum in T15. The durations of flowering (112.87 days) and harvesting (47.97 days), and the number of fruits per plant (26.10) were recorded maximum in T3 while, number of runners (38.76/ plant) and berry yield (522.03 g/ plant) were highest in T12. The increased leaf nutrients content viz., N (2.83 %) in T6, P (0.304 %), K (1.75 %) and Mg (0.335 %) in T3 and Ca (1.46 %) in T15 were also recorded with the use of PGPR as compared to control. However, the micronutrients viz., Zn (30.03 ppm) and Fe (114.80 ppm) were highest in T12 while, Cu (7.61 ppm) was recorded highest in T6 and Mn (93.63 ppm) in T3.
