Abstract

Microorganisms identified as phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) adaptive to vinasse were successfully screened from sugarcane soil from an agriculatural estate in Jatiroto. By conducting a screening on Pikovskaya's agar medium (PAM), we found that five different isolates were detected as PSB (pvk-5a, pvk-5b, pvk-6b, pvk-7a, and pvk-8a). Of the five isolates only three could be grown and were found to be adaptive to vinasse based medium without any nutrients added (pvk-5a, pvk-5b and pvk-7a). The three isolates were  characterized as coccus and Gram negative with no endospores detected. We suggest that these three isolates can be used as biofertilizer agent to  support organic farming.
