The decrease of soil fertility and fewer soil microorganisms will lower crop production, particularly rice, thus threatening the national food security program. This study is (a) to isolate and identify the bacteria in the endophytic and rhizosphere of rice plants (b) to study the bacteria from the endophytic and rhizosphere of rice plants which potentially stimulate plant growth. The experiment was carried out at the Laboratory of Food Crop Cultivation at Payakumbuh State Agriculture Polytechnic, Limapuluh Kota Regency, West Sumatra for four months. The sampling method was carried out by random sampling at rice planting in the Payakumbuh State Agriculture Polytechnic Experimental Field. Endophytic bacteria were taken from the root tissue of rice plants, and rhizosphere bacteria were taken from a layer of soil around rice roots. Isolation of bacteria was carried out by using the pour plate and scratchplate methods. Four bacteria were identified using the 16S rRNA sequencing method. The identification results showed that in the rice root tissue found the bacteria Chromobacterium rhizoryzae and Brevibacillus brevis . In the rice rhizosphere, Bacillus pseudomycoides and Bacillus thuringiensis are found. Bacteria are dominated by the Bacillus genera which can stimulate plant growth.
