Crop production encounters challenges due to the dearth of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), while excessive use chemical fertilizers causes environmental hazards. Use rhizobium phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) can be a sustainable strategy overcome these problems. Hence, pot experiment was conducted following completely randomized design explore impact fixing PSB on growth, yield, quality ...

Nitrogen (N) availability and soil microbiota exert significant impacts on plant metabolic systems yield. Different studies have indicated that yield nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.R.Br.) can be improved by the inoculation N-fixing bacteria. However, interactive effects different N sources bacteria growth, productivity, NUE been less explored. Therefore, ind...

to study the effects of different levels of seed ageing and bacteria inoculation on yield of common bean at field conditions, an experiment was carried out as factorial arranged in rcbd design with three replications at research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2012. treatments consisted of four levels of seed ageing (0 (control), 3, 6 and 9 days at 41°c and 90-100% relative humidit...

introduction: soil fertility management is a key factor in achieving sustainable agriculture. use of organic fertilizers is one of the methods that without environmental harmful effects with improvement of chemical and biological conditions increases soil fertility. nitroxin contains a collection of the best strains of nitrogen fixation bacteria of the genus azospirillum and azotobacter. these ...

These experiments were conducted to study the response of some Egyptian cotton, Giza 96 (extra-long stable) and stable)varieties its yield characteristic, lint percentage, fiber yarn properties when using bio-fertilizers such as vermicompost, Bacteria  bacteria inoculums (Bacillus polymxa, Bacillus megaterium circulans) algae extract under different growing area, Sakha region (clay soil) El-Nub...

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.) is a climate-smart cereal crop for environments prone to drought and heat stresses. cultivated in Pakistan on marginal soils with phosphorus (P) deficiency, which significantly decreases its productivity. Moreover, P fixation the country’s calcareous another major constraint requires attention. solubilizing bacteria (PSB) have potential improve avai...

Here we report the phenotypic characteristics of a novel hypernodulation mutant, Ljrdh1 (root-determined hypernodulation 1) of Lotus japonicus. At 12 weeks after rhizobial inoculation, there were no differences between the growth of Ljrdh1 and, wild-type. However, Ljrdh1 showed 2 to 3 times higher nitrogen-fixing activity, and seed and pod yields, were approximately 50% higher than the wild-typ...

to study the effect of urea application in safflower (carthamus tinctorius) and determination of effective traits on its yield, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design in three replications was conducted in tabriz, iran, during 2012. studied factors were urea rate levels as 100, 150 and 200 kg/ha and urea application times 100% in sowing time, 50% sowing time + 50% stem...
