Modern agriculture is dependent on phosphate rock (PR), which is a nonrenewable resource. Improvement of phosphorus (P) availability for crops in agricultural soils represents a key strategy to slow down the depletion of PR. The aim of this study was to identify potential P biofertilisers among saprotrophic fungal species. We tested 30 fungal strains belonging to 28 taxa (4 Zygomycota and 24 As...

Phosphorus (P) is an essential element for plant growth. On account of its low solubility in soil, P often a limiting factor to optimum crop growth and therefore fertilisation important aspect nutrient management plans ensure profitable sustainable production. Plant availability controlled by sorption, desorption precipitation from released during weathering minerals applied P. Much research ha...

A pot experiment was carried out on hybrid drumstick PKM 1 added with inorganic and organic fertilisers. Seeds of hybrid Drumstick PKM1 were sown in the plastic pots in glass house condition. Single inorganic fertilizer, phosphate solubiliser and bio organic fertilizer as well as in different combinations were applied to the pots. Data revealed that plant height, fresh and dry biomass, moisture...

the co-inoculation of mulberry with phosphate solubilizing micro-organisms, nitrogen fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhiza has influenced its macronutrient uptake through leaf. the data revealed that maximum nitrogen (484.12 kg /ha) , phosphorus (59.83 kg /ha) and potassium (244.61 kg/ha) uptake through leaf has taken place due to co-inoculation treatments as compared to the un inoculated t...
