Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Application of 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 gave the highest chlorophyll content in lentil.
- Intervention effect Application of 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 gave the highest yield attributes and grain yield in lentil.
- Intervention effect Coinoculation of Rhizobium and PGPR performed better than the uninoculated control and single inoculations for all measured parameters.
- Intervention effect 20 kg P2O5 ha-1 plus Rhizobium gave grain yield statistically similar to 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 alone.
- Intervention effect 20 kg P2O5 ha-1 plus Rhizobium plus PGPR gave significantly higher grain yield than 40 kg P2O5 ha-1 alone.
- Recommendation Rhizobium alone or with a PGPR consortium can save 20 kg P2O5 ha-1 and also increase lentil grain yield.
