Centrolobium tomentosum is a tropical legume tree indicated for functional and structural restoration of riparian areas. This study was conducted to characterize the rhizobia isolated from nodules of C. tomentosum in situ and to determine their capacity of renodulation, in an experimental area of land rehabilitation in the Rio Doce valley. Nodulation potential to inoculation with 2 selected fas...

Legumes’ nutrition relies on two sources of nitrogen (N): mineral N from soil, and biological fixation (BNF). The aim this study was to verify the effect bacterial inoculation, as well compare it with different fertilization main nodulation characteristics, yield components seed soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) cultivars in conditions south-eastern Poland. A randomized block design used four re...

Inoculation alfalfa seeds with the right Rhizobium strain (nitrogen-fixing bacteria) can stimulate root nodulation and improve plant growth yield. Different inoculation methods are used to inoculate seeds; however, effect of these on germination is not well documented. In present study, was evaluated after using different methods, i.e. Arabic gum solution glucose as adhesive substances surface ...

Legumes are considered to be an important component of subsistence cropping systems because of their ability to form nodules in symbiotic process with Rhizobium bacteria, which convert atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into assimilable form of ammonia, to add substantial amount of organic matter to the soil and to grow better than many other crops with low inputs under harsh climatic and edaphic condit...

10.1601/nm.26956 caballeronis is a plant-associated bacterium. Strain TNe-841T was isolated from the rhizosphere of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L. var. lycopersicum) growing in Nepantla Mexico State. Initially this bacterium was found to effectively nodulate Phaseolus vulgaris L. However, from an analysis of the genome of strain TNe-841T and from repeat inoculation experiments, we found that t...

Improving legumes crops’ performance under dense stands shade environment (e.g., intercropped oats–clover) is needed to promote agroecological practices. Previous studies have revealed that ethylene produced by plants standing conditions among other factors affect growth and reduce legumes’ ability fix nitrogen (N). Here, we identified a Pseudomonas thivervalensis strain T124 as high ACC deamin...

an experiment was conducted at assossa agricultural research center (aarc) station during 2008 cropping season in order to study the effects of co-inoculation of bradyrhizobium japonicum (tal-378 and tal-379) and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (psb) (pseudomonas spp.), and conventional farmers’ fertilizer level (combined and individual application of 46n kg ha-1 and 46 p2o5 kg ha-1) on nodulat...

The utilization of actinomycetes as potential soybean (Glycine max (L.)) co-inoculants was evaluated. Soil samples from Carbondale and Belleville, Ill., were used to inoculate pre-germinated soybean plants to determine antibiotic sensitivity in the native Bradyrhizobium japonicum population. Sensitivity was in the order kanamycin > tetracycline > oxytetracycline > rifampicin > neomycin. Antagon...

The cultivation of soybean in Brazil experienced an expressive growth in the last decades. Soybean is highly demanding on nitrogen (N) that must come from fertilizers or from biological fixation. The N supply to the soybean crop in Brazil relies on the inoculation with elite strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum, B. elkanii, and B. diazoefficiens, which are able to fulfill the crop's N requiremen...
