Synergistic Effects Of The Inoculation With Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria And An Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus On The Performance Of Wheat, Mohammad Saghir Khan, Almas Zaidi
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The synergistic effects of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria and an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus fasciculatum) on plant growth, yield, and nutrient uptake of wheat plants were determined in field conditions. The triple inoculation of Azotobacter chroococcum with Bacillus and Glomus fasciculatum significantly increased the dry matter by 2.6-fold above the control. Grain yield of plants inoculated with A. chroococcum together with Bacillus sp. and G. fasciculatum was 2-fold higher than that of non-inoculated plants, at 135 days after sowing (DAS). The maximum increase in grain protein (255.2 mg g^{-1}) was observed in plants inoculated with A. chroococcum with Bacillus sp., …
