Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect At low nitrogen, A. brasiliense produced similar dry matter to untreated plants at high nitrogen.
- Intervention effect At low nitrogen, A. piechaudii raised dry matter 23% over untreated high-nitrogen plants.
- Intervention effect At low nitrogen, P. mendocina raised dry matter 23% over untreated high-nitrogen plants.
- Intervention effect At low nitrogen, G. intraradices raised dry matter 28% over untreated high-nitrogen plants.
- Intervention effect Microbial inoculation increased root length, especially at suboptimal nitrogen.
- Mechanism The authors linked longer roots to improved mineral absorption.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that these microorganisms can support lower fertilizer inputs.
