Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT: A field experiment was carried out during two winter seasons (2012 and 2013) at El-Noubaria, El-Behiera Governorate, Egypt, to evaluate the effect of soil inoculation with symbiotic N2-fixing bacteria (a composite inoculum containing mixed culture “1:1” of Azotobacter chroococcum and Azospirillum lipoferum) on plant growth and yield of wheat crop grown newly reclaimed sandy soil. Foliar application of pink pigment facultative methylotorphic bacteria PPFMs (producing phytohormone) with either level of N-mineral fertilizer (60 and 120 kg N/fed), was also introduced . | ||||
