- Intervention effect Inoculation with Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viceae (LB-4) increased lentil nodule number, nodule dry weight, plant dry weight, and nitrogen uptake relative to the uninoculated control.
- Intervention effect Inoculation with Bacillus megaterium increased lentil nodule number, nodule dry weight, plant dry weight, and nitrogen uptake relative to the uninoculated control.
- Intervention effect Inoculation with Kurthia sp. increased lentil nodule number, nodule dry weight, plant dry weight, and nitrogen uptake relative to the uninoculated control.
- Intervention effect Pseudomonas diminuta alone significantly increased lentil nodule number, nodule dry weight, and grain and straw nitrogen uptake.
- Observation Rhizobium alone had the highest nodule occupancy of 34.4% at 70 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Coinoculation of PSB and both PGPRs improved occupancy of inoculated Rhizobium in lentil nodules, peaking at 90 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Rhizobium plus PSB was statistically comparable to either inoculant alone across measured parameters.
- Intervention effect Rhizobium plus LK-786 increased plant dry weight over individual inoculation at 90 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Rhizobium plus LK-884 increased plant dry weight over individual inoculation at 90 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Rhizobium plus PSB plus LK-786 produced more nodules, nodule dry weight, and plant dry weight than Rhizobium alone.
- Intervention effect The combined inoculation increased nodule occupancy to 34.7 to 42.3% over Rhizobium alone at 45 and 90 days after sowing.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation increased lentil grain yield by 23.5% over PSB alone.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation numerically increased lentil straw yield by 13.2% over Rhizobium alone.
- Intervention effect Combined inoculation numerically increased lentil straw yield by 14.0% over PSB alone.
