Offer Description This research project aims to characterize a collection of bacteria isolated from the root system of lettuce (Lactuca sativa), with the objective of determining their taxonomic identity, functional traits, and potential plant growth-promoting (PGP) properties. The isolated bacterial strains will be evaluated with respect to their effects on the growth, development, and stress tolerance of the host plant, with the aim of identifying candidates with potential applications in sustainable agriculture. To this end,
both in vitro and in vivo experiments will be conducted, together with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis, aimed at quantifying and monitoring bacterial presence.
