The purpose of this present study is to explore and decipher copper tolerant plant growth promoting bacteria from dolomite contaminated soil. Lysinibacillus sphaericus (NJCT1) isolated from tea garden soil near Kaljani river bank has been found to exhibit multifaceted characteristics and has shown its ability to tolerate copper up-to 40 mg/ml. Further, its ability to tolerate other heavy metals were also assessed and the result revealed that it can tolerate iron, zinc and aluminum upto 100 mg/ml, while for lead and arsenic it showed tolerance upto 10 mg/ml. GC-MS analysis showed that L. sphaericus (NJCT1) produced 16 compounds, among them, tromethamine, 2-methylbutanoic acid, 2,4,6-(1H,3H,5H)-pyrimidinetrione, 2-piperidinone, 3,5,5-trimethylhexyl acetate and cis-3-hexenyl propionate were found to exhibit various important biological properties. Also, this isolate was positive for phosphate solubilization and is capable of producing ammonia, HCN, siderophore, and 17.12 µg/ml of indole acetic acid. In seed germination, seeds treated with NJCT1 demonstrated 100% germination rate with 111-time increase in seedling vigor index. Further, in pot study, significant increase in all the growth parameters of NJCT1 treated Vigna radiata and Phaseolus vulgaris gave a strong indication that this strain can be a promising candidate for reclamation and revitalization of dolomite and copper ore affected tea garden soil.
