Summary: Here, we evaluated in vitro different Bacillus strains and related genera (Paenibacillus, Peribacillus, and Alkalihalobacillus) for their ability to mineralize insoluble organic P sources. A total of 217 endophytic, epiphytic, and rhizospheric strains isolated from native and cultivated plant species from different Brazilian biomes were obtained from the “Collection of Microorganisms and Microalgae Applied to Agroenergy and Biorefineries (CMMAABio)”, located at Embrapa Agroenergia. Three solid culture media from the literature were evaluated (1, 2, and 3): two containing hydrated phytic acid sodium salt (from rice) (media 1 and 2) and one containing soy lecithin (medium 3) as the insoluble organic P source.
