Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial bacteria that facilitate plant growth and can be used in the restoration of ecosystems. However, PGPR vary in their temperature tolerance, and few studies have investigated the effect of temperature on PGPR-mediated growth promotion or PGPR inoculum colonization. Therefore, we isolated and purified rhizosphere bacteria from the rhizosphere soil of Elymus nutans Griseb (EnG), collected from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Selective culture media were used to assess whether these strains possess plant growth-promoting abilities and to measure the magnitude of their plant growth-promoting ability. Then screen out the strains (S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5) with strong plant growth-promoting ability for identification. To demonstrate the growth-promoting effects of the selected PGPR, we conducted a study. In this study, we simulated three temperature gradients (10°C, 15°C, and 20°C) during the growing season of EnG on the Tibetan Plateau. Furthermore, we established four incubation substrate treatments: T1(addition of PGPR but no addition of NPK fertilizers), T2 (neither PGPR nor NPK fertilizers addition), T3 (addition of PGPR both and NPK fertilizers), and T4 (addition of NPK fertilizers but not PGPR), to explore the effects of PGPR on the growth and nutrient (NPK) utilization efficiency of EnG at different temperatures. The results revealed that compared with those under T2, the plant height (PT) and dry weight under, T1 increased ...
