ABSTRACT

The efficient bioinoculants are gaining importance in sustaining agriculture. In the present study, to analyses the effects caused by agrochemicals and to find the best alternative agrochemicals tolerance bioinoculants to where the crop production. Chemical fertilizers were treated with bioinoculants at different concentrations. Decrease in growth rate of both A. brasilensis and B. megaterium strains was observed at higher concentrations of urea and superphosphate. Azospirillum brasilensis did not inhibit the growth of B. megaterium at coculture conditions in well diffusion test as no inhibition zone was observed around the culture well of A. brasilensis on the lawn of B. megaterium. Similarly, B. megaterium did not suppress the growth of A. brasilensis. Applications of urea and superphosphate along with adaptive bacterial Inoculants A. brasilensis and B. megaterium resulted in maximum increase in number plant growth. After 30 and 60 days different treatments of plant growth parameters was obtained. Chlorophyll content was increased with the application of half dose of fertilizer. The experimental soil physicochemical properties were analyzed for 30 and 60 days,the pH, EC, calcium carbonate level, micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Z, and Cu) and macronutrients (N, P,K) levels were increased in all treatments compared to control. Overall results suggest application of 0.5% chemical fertilizers with bioinoculants increase the plant growth and soil chemical profiles such as enzymes, macro and micro nutrients.
