“…Also, such increases might be due to corresponding increases in N, P, K availability in the studied soil. Our result is in line with that of the study of Akram et al, 2017;Hegazi et al, 2017. Regarding to the effect of organic manure on N, P and K concentration in Table 5, it was found that adding compost town refuse at rate of 10 m3.fed. increased the concentration of these nutrients compared to the untreated plants.…”

“…Phosphate ions availability causes plant's resistance to lodging, higher quality, early maturity of product, increase of plant growth from emergence to the beginning of flowering and pollination and consequently the crop yield will increase. The obtained results are in harmony with those of Bahuguna et al, 2015;Akram et al, 2017;Hegazi et al, 2017. Results showed significant superiority of compost town refuse over the untreated plant to the average one fruit fresh weight (g), number of fruits per plant, total fruit yield per plant (g/plant) and total yield (ton/fed) as well as DM% of sweet pepper plant. These results might be discussed by the results of Ogundareet al (2015) and Rajyaet al (2015) who resulted that, increasing in nutrient availability due to integrated use of organic and mineral fertilizers increased nutrient uptake by the plant, which in turn lead to dry matter production and tomato fruit yield.…”

In season of 2018, an experiment was established as field experiment to evaluate the effect of different raets of phosphorus fertilization (control, 25, 50, 75 and 100% from recommended dose, 60 kg.fed-1 calcium superphosphate SP; 15% P 2 O 5 as main plots along with presence and absence of compost town refuse as sub-plots on growth, chemical contenst and productivity of sweet pepper plant (Capcicum annum) at the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agricultural, El-Mansoura University.The experiment tested was arrauged in an experimental split plot design with three replicates.The results showed that growth of sweet pepper plants were affected signifiently according to application of P-fertilization, addition of 75% followed by 50% which recorded the highest values of average fresh weight (g), number of fruits per plant, total fruit yield per plant (g/plant) and total yield (ton/fed) as well as DM%, an increase in photosynthetic pigments, TSS% and V.C (mg/100g) and minerals composition (N, P and K% in leaves and fruits) was also recorded, while Fe, Mn and Zn in sweet pepper fruits decreased with increasing P-fertilization comparing with the control which treatment recorded the lowest values,where the highest values were recorded with 25% of P-fertilization. Heavy metals were increased until 100% P-fertilization. All studied parameters under investigation were increased due to application of compost town refuse. So, it could be recommended for using both 75% from P-fertilization recommended dose and compost town refuse for optimum sweet pepper performance. Therefore, the organic fertilizers might help in reducing the need of high rates of P-fertilization to maintain proper P amount and also in reducing the expenses.

“…To take full advantage of nodulation and nitrogen fixation, legumes need phosphorus since these processes are very energy requiring, demanding at least 16 molecules of ATP for each molecule of N 2 reduction [ 14 , 30 , 31 ]. Phosphorus (P) is also required for root development, nutrient uptake, legumes growth, development, and grains production [ 32 , 33 , 34 ]. Phosphorus was also reported to be involved in many metabolic processes such as photosynthesis [ 35 , 36 ].…”

Biological nitrogen fixation requires a large amount of phosphorus (P). However, most of the soils are P-deficient and the extensive use of P- chemical fertilizers constitute a serious threat to the environment. In this context, two field experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of co-inoculation of Mesorhizobium ciceri with phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), Bacillus sp., and Enterobacter aerogenes, on chickpea as an alternative to chemical nitrogen (N) and phosphorous fertilizers in P-deficient soils in dry areas of Morocco. The results revealed that combined inoculation of chickpea with rhizobia and PSB showed a significant enhancement of chickpea nodulation, biomass production, yields and N, P, and protein content in grains as compared to single inoculation or single application of N or P. A significantly higher increase was obtained by inoculating chickpea with Mesorhizobium sp. MA72 combined with E. aerogenes P1S6. This combination allowed an enhancement of more than 270% in nodulation, 192% in shoot dry weight and 242% in grain yield. The effect of this combination was equivalent to the effect of combined application of N and P fertilizers. Formulation of biofertilizers based on tasted strains could be used for chickpea co-inoculation in P-deficient soils for an eco-friendly sustainable production of chickpea.

“…Conant et al [1] observed that, the microbial bio stimulant, Mammoth PTM could be seamlessly incorporated into the Cannabis sativa culture, resulting in a 16.5% increase in bud yields. Akram et al [2] found that, application of 100 kg ha -1 Phosphorus and 120 kg ha -1 Potassium to the chili plants resulted in optimal plant height; increased number of branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits per plant; enhanced fruit length, girth, and weight; enhanced seed weight and Phosphorus percentage. Lungo [3] conducted a study on the origin of grapevines, where grapevine varieties are annotated in history with their names and not by a generic reference notation.…”
