Abstract:Aims: The aim of the present study is to isolate and characterize root nodulating bacteria from Cicer arientinum L cv. GNG 1958 and assess its plant growth promoting properties. The study is based on previous reports that native symbiotic bacteria may be replaced by better performing strains by corss-inoculation to increase productivity and tolarance to Biotic and abiotic stresses.
Study Design: Isolation of symbiotic bacteria, its biochemical and molecular characterization and assessment of plant growt… 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.
