| Abstract | ||
| Water stress is a world-wide problem that affects the functional and biochemical processes of plants resulting in varying growth, income and water associations of economic plants. The present work was evaluated to improve the yield of common bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under different water stress levels by using microorganisms. The interaction effect between water stress (WW as recommended irrigation, WS1 after 13 days and WS2 after 18 days) holding water and inoculation with different microorganisms (AMF, EM, endophytic bacteria) used alone or in combination with each other were evaluated for their effect on yield production. Application of AMF and EM considerably increased the average values of all quality parameters and realized the highest mean values until WS1. The inoculation with AMF and EM with WS1 are the greater than other levels which common bean plants had a significantly higher number of pods, length of pod, pods weight, 100 seeds weight, yield (ton /Fed) and water-use efficiency (WUE, ton/ m3). Concentrations of nutrients (N, K, P, Mg and Ca). In addition, vitamin B1, folic acid, total carbohydrates, crude protein and crude fibers significantly increased at AMF+EM under second water stress (WS1). | ||
