Fodder cowpea and field bean are the minor legumes cultivated mainly in arid and semi-arid tracts of India. Species of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi known to improve plant growth may not have the same effect on all the plants due to host preference. Hence, screening and selecting the efficient AM fungus for each crop is important for maximum sy...

Plant growth-promoting Pseudomonads regulate plant growth by several direct and indirect mechanisms; direct mechanisms include producing phytohormones, increasing nutrient availability and indirect mechanisms include suppressing soil-borne plant pathogens by the production of siderophores, antibiotics, inducing systemic resistance and competing wit...

The performance of a selected microbial consortia (Rhizophagus fasciculatus, Azotobacter chroococcum, Bacillus coagulans and Trichoderma harzianum) on Dalbergia sissoo Roxb. ex DC. was investigated through large-scale nursery trials at three locations in the Mandya district of Karnataka state, India. At each nursery, 500 microbial consortia inocula...

Abstract Soil microorganisms play an important role in enhancing soil fertility and plant health. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria form a key component of the soil microbial population. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi form symbiotic association with most of the cultivated crop plants and they help plants in phospho...
