The objective of this work was to isolate and identify Azotobacter species present in the rhizosphere of Apium graveolens L. cultivated in the Barraza agricultural area of the Laredo district in August 2021. Twenty-five rhizospheric soil samples were collected from 6 celery cultivation plots, which were sown in Ashby broth, where the formation of a biofilm was evidenced, which was sown on Ashby agar, and after 2 days of incubation isolated gummy colonies grew and Gram negative bacilli were observed by microscopic observation with Gram stain. Pure cultures were obtained by sowing on nutrient agar. Identification was then carried out by morphological and biochemical tests including: observation of colonies on Ashby agar, Gram staining, Maneval staining, motility test, nitrate reduction to nitrite, fermentation of rhamnose, malonate, starch, glucose, benzoate, maltose, glycerol, mannitol, lactose and arabinose; urease test and citrate utilisation. Three cultures of the genus Azotobacter were isolated and identified, and A. beijerinckii, A. nigricans and A. chroococcum were determined as native species from the rhizosphere of Apium graveolens L. grown in the Barraza agricultural area of the Laredo district.
