In order to investigate the effect of seed inoculation with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobactria (PGPR) on germination and some biochemical and physiological indices of Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) under salinity stress, an experiment was conducted. Experimental factors were included in seed priming in five levels (seed inoculation with three strains of Pf2, Pf25 and CHA0 of Pseudomonas fluorescen...

the influence of vam fungi and bacterial biofertilizer (bbf) with 50% reduction in the recommended dose of (n and p) chemical fertilizers on leaf quality traits of mulberry variety (s-13) and its impact on silkworm (pm ? nb4d2) growth and cocoon characters were studied under semi-arid conditions. four different treatments were imposed i.e., t1: control (only 100% npk); t2: vam (50% cut in p); t...

Nothing is more important for effective nodulation of legumes that the availability of sufficient numbers of an infective strain of rhizobia in the root zone of seedlings. In some cases, the soil will contain sufficient numbers of infective rhizobia but modern approaches to the use of genetically superior strains of rhizobia practically demands the use of some means of inoculation, thus raising...

The influence of VAM fungi and bacterial biofertilizer (BBF) with 50% reduction in the recommended dose of (N and P) chemical fertilizers on leaf quality traits of mulberry variety (S-13) and its impact on silkworm (PM ? NB4D2) growth and cocoon characters were studied under semi-arid conditions. Four different treatments were imposed i.e., T1: Control (only 100% NPK); T2: VAM (50% cut in P); ...

introduction considering the nutrient loss, environmental pollution and increase in production costs on account of chemical fertilizer application, supplying mineral nutrients based on organic sources and mycorrhizal inoculation can improve organic matter content in soil (khandan & astaraei, 2005; halajnia et al., 2007), promote sustainable production of oil crops (mostafavian et al., 2008; kaw...

application of biofertilizers is a crucial technique for reducing catastrophic effects of irregular utilization of chemical fertilizers. this experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of rhizobium strains and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on dry matter partitioning and some growth parameters of chickpea (cicer arientinum l.), arman cultivar. this research was conducted as...

The application of PGPB to agriculture is increasing as it offers an alternative to the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and other supplements. Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the world’s principal cereal crops, grown for grain, silage and biofuel. Nitrogen fertilizer constitutes one of the major costs in maize production, and PGPB poses a potential alternative for achieving more sustainab...

this research was carried out at the research farm, faculty of agriculture, bu-ali sina university in growing season of 2011-2012. the aim of research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of nano-iron chelate and bacterization of mesorhizobium bacteria on root nodulation, growth, grain yield and yield components of chickpea under rainfed conditions. a randomized complete block desig...
