There are many bacteria in the soil, but they have less biomass because of their small size. Soil-inhabitant bacteria are an essential source of nutrients for plants. Some studies highlighted their industrial importance, like in the pharmaceutical industry, perfume manufacturing, and agriculture product scale-up production, including biofertilizers. Most of the studies have been carried out on Actinobacteria and Nitrobacter because of their potential to produce biofertilizers and chemical constituents on a large scale. This chapter discussed their taxonomic and morphological characteristics and gathered details about their practical applications from limited studies carried out in this field.
