Abstract:The maize crop demands high nitrogen input. However, Brazilian soils are generally deficient in this element. The use of associative bacteria, such as Azospirillum brasilense, can benefit agricultural systems that use low nitrogen levels. This study analyzes the occurrence of maternal inheritance in traits of maize genotypes for the efficiency of response to Azospirillum brasilense. For that, we used 132 treatments consisting of 66 crosses in complete diallel scheme with reciprocals. We evaluated two experimen… Show more
