• Application of plant growth-promoting bacteria associated with composts and macrofauna for growth promotion of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) (2006, background): “Compost is rich in microbes and when applied, the soil will be enriched with a variety of nutrients that will become available for the indigenous microflora and hence, plants (Postma et al. 2003).”
