Highlights • The endophytic Bacillus megaterium isolated from Hybrid Pennisetum is promising isolate for Cd bioremediation.• The mutated strain BM18-2 showed higher capacity to resist Cd until 70 μM and improving plant growth.• Six different genes of BM18-2 are involved in Cd resistance mechanism.• Hybrid Pennisetum inoculated with BM18-2 showed higher amount of growth and toleranc to Cd toxicity than uninoculated plants.
