The tripartite symbiosis between legumes, rhizobia and mycorrhizal fungi are generally considered to be beneficial for the nitrogen (N) uptake of legumes, but the facilitation of symbiosis in legume/non-legume intercropping systems is not clear. Therefore, the aims of the research are as follows: (1) to verify if the dual inoculation can facilitate the N uptake and N transfer in maize/soybean i...

Background: Symbiotic association with different microbes is an integral and ecologically vital component of legumes. Most previous studies focused on sole application microbial agents, limited investigating the effects co-inoculation agents under tillage practices soil properties. The current study aimed to assess effect practice seed treatment biofertilizers inoculations chemical properties n...

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 ...

The effect of plant growth-promoting bacteria inoculation on plant growth and the sugar content in Agave americana was assessed. The bacterial strains ACO-34A, ACO-40, and ACO-140, isolated from the A. americana rhizosphere, were selected for this study to evaluate their phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. The three bacterial strains were evaluated via plant inoculation assays, and Azospi...

Co-application of fertilisers and biofertilisers increases solubility concentration nutrient elements in the soil. However, information on effect P fertiliser rhizobium inoculation mineral rhizosphere field-grown chickpea contrasting soil types is lacking. We assessed phosphorus fertiliser, inoculation, plus fertilizer nutrients 2 genotypes (ACC#1 & ACC#5) at clay sandy sites two consecutive ye...

A pot trial was designed to investigate the impact of Rhizobium inoculation and/or sodium benzoate application on performance of two contrasting fababean varieties i.e., Giza Blanka (salt tolerant) and Giza 634 (salt sensitive) grown in sandy soil under two levels of salinity (3000 and 6000 ppm). High salinity (6000 ppm) greatly reduced nodules formation in both varieties. Rhizobium inoculation...

this research investigate the potential of rhizobium leguminosarum b.v .phaseoli to improve growth and nutritional status of common bean (akhtar cultivar) at three levels of salinity of s0, s1 and s2 (0, 35 and 70 mm sodium chloride, or 0, 3 and 6 ds/m, respectively). the greenhouse experiment was conducted as a factorial design in randomized completely with three replications by using the ster...

Pulse, pasture and grain legumes are important for maintaining productivity in many agricultural systems. The formation of effective nitrogen-fixing symbioses between legumes and root nodule bacteria is essential for many legumes in agriculture. In many situations, soil inoculation with effective strains of root nodule bacteria is required for maximising legume yields. A key strategy to enhance...
