“…Also, IIbas and Sahn (2005) in their work on soybean showed that inoculation with phosphorus has significant effect on 1000-seed weight. Table 2 Many investigators obtained similar results of the interaction between the P rates of bio-fertilizer and spraying micronutrients including (1) due to mineral P application and P-bio-fertilization (Singh et al 2008;Selvakumar et al 2012 andUddin et al 2014), (2) due to mineral P application and micronutrients foliation (Kashturikrishna and Ahlawat, 1999) and (3) due to P bio-fertilization and micronutrients spraying (Amara, 1998). This might be due to combined stimulating effect of phosphorus dissolving bacteria and P fertilizer levels in supplying the growing plants with their phosphorus requirements.…”

FIELD experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of different levels of phosphorus fertilizer application P 0 (without P fertilizer), P 1 (15 kg P 2 O 5 /fed), P 2 (22.5 kg P 2 O 5 /fed) and the recommended dose P 3 (30 kg P 2 O 5 /fed), either alone or in combination with phosphorus biofertilizer (phosphorus solubilizing bacteria Bacillus megatherium) and foliar spray of micronutrients (Fe + Mn + Zn at mixture rate 1:1:1) on yield, yield components and seed quality of soybean. The results showed that the yield and its components were significantly increased with the levels of mineral P-fertilizers, biological P-fertilizers and foliar spray of micronutrients alone or in combination. Also, the results disclosed that the highest values of yield components were obtained with combination of P rate of 22.5 kg P 2 O 5 /fed with inoculation of Pbiofertilizer and foliar spray of micronutrients. Application of phosphorus at the rate of 22.5 kg P 2 O 5 /fed in combination with phosphorus dissolving bacteria significantly increased the uptake of macro-, micro-nutrients, protein and oil contents. Moreover, the combined application of mineral phosphorus and foliar micronutrients application had positive effect on N, K, Mn, as well as protein and oil content. The interaction between phosphorus level at 22.5 kg P 2 O 5 /fed, phosphorus biofertilizer and foliar micronutrients had significant influence on uptake of K, Fe and Mn in seeds of soybean plants. Therefore, it could be concluded that, biofertilizers could replace a portion of the chemical fertilizers in soybean production reducing environment problems linked to the mineral fertilizers.

“…However, PSB inoculated alone with P did not increase the yield significantly, perhaps because the presence of already available form of P that might have decreased the performance of PSB. Inoculation of PSB and VAM coupled with 0.5 P enhanced P concentration and content in root, shoot and nodule (Uddin et al, 2014) in comparison to 1.0 P application with higher P flow through the root from soil and ultimately enhanced P acquisition through higher root CEC, RLD, P inflow rate, root foraging and soil P mining capacity (Richardson et al, 2011). It clearly indicated that PSB and VAM mobilized more P to the plant from soil.…”

“…The increase in the yield components through seed inoculation might be due to higher nodulation and more nutrient availability, resulting in vigorous plant growth and dry matter accumulation, which in turn resulted in higher seed yield (Namwar et al, 2013;Uddin et al, 2014). More examples of the beneficial effects of Rhizobium inoculation in chickpea are given in Table 1.…”

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the major food legume. It belongs to family Fabaceae (Leguminosae) and is widely grown for its nutritional benefits. In the present scenario, sustainability of agriculture has become a major issue of global concern as the intensive use of chemical inputs has an adverse impact on the environment. Use of biofertilizers such as Rhizobium can reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and decrease adverse environmental effects. The studies have shown positive effect of Rhizobium (Mesorhizobium) inoculation on growth attributes, symbiotic parameters, yield and yield components, nutrient uptake and quality in chickpea. Fluctuations in various environmental factors viz. pH, nutrient availability, temperature, moisture, salinity and herbicides greatly influence the growth, survival, and metabolic activity of nitrogen fixing bacteria and plants, and their ability to enter into symbiotic relationship.
