The multi-trait Enterobacter hormaechei strain was isolated from Jeevamrut (an organic manure prepared from cow dung, cow urine, jaggery and gram flour) prepared at Indore Biotech Inputs and Research Pvt. Ltd. The strain was identified using 16s RNA sequencing and was found to have the ability to solubilize minerals such as phosphate, potassium and zinc, calcite solublization, and oxidize sulphur in vitro. The isolate also produces Indole Acetic Acid, and siderophores. Furthermore, the Enterobacter strain reported here can retard the growth of Fusarium oxysporium significantly in vitro. All these properties make this strain a strong candidate for use as a bio inoculant
