Abstract:Coupling phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) with P fertilizers, including polyphosphates (PolyP), was reported as eco-efficient approach to enhance P use efficiency. Although PSB have been recently reported to hydrolyze PolyP, the plant growth promoting mechanisms of PolyP-PSB co-application were not yet uncovered. This study aims to evaluate the effect of a PSB consortium (PSBCs) on growth, P use efficiency (PUE), and wheat yield parameters under PolyP (PolyB) application. Co-application of PolyB-PSBCs sig… 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.
