The growth promotion effect of CNS enriched isolations. A Phenotype of tobacco seedlings after inoculation with CNS-enriched bacteria on MS plates. Distilled water was used as the negative control, and Escherichia coli served as the positive control. B Phenotype of tobacco seedlings after inoculation with CNS-enriched fungi on MS plates. C Phylogenetic analysis of two isolated Fungi. Neighbor-joining trees were constructed using partial ITS gene sequences of F119 and F126 and their close relatives. Trichoderma harzianum was used as outgroup for rooting the tree. D Phenotype of tobacco seedlings after inoculation with two fungi F119 and F126 in 6-well culture plates without physical contact. E Box plots showing growth parameters of tobacco seedlings exposure to volatile compounds of F119 and F126 for 10 days. ANOVA with an LSD test (P < 0.05) indicated statistically significant differences denoted by different letters for each assessed parameter
