Abstract:A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of Rhizobium inoculation methods and the effect of different levels of N fertilization on nodulation, nitrogen fixation and yield of Phaseolus vulgaris L. The N treatment produced a seed yield significantly higher than that of the other treatments. Inoculation treatments had no significant effect on nodule number and dry weight, even when compared to the noninoculated and N controls. This finding was attributed to a high number of Rhizobium phaseoli in th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
