Effect of tomato seed treatments with two bacterial isolates on germination and seed vigor index. The treated seeds were soaked for 2 h in suspensions containing 109 CFU/ml, while the control seeds were soaked in sterile distilled water. Each value represents the mean from three independently repeated experiments ± SE. There was no significant difference between treatments for seed germination (P > 0.05). For the seed vigor index, different letters above the bars indicate significant differences between treatments based on a Newman–Keuls multiple range test (P < 0.05). A presents the results of the percentage of tomato seed germination while B presents the results of Vigor Index
