Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Exopolysaccharides as carriers improved growth parameters and nitrogen fixation of cowpea compared with peat.
- Intervention effect Cowpea co-inoculated with Bradyrhizobium sp. and Paenibacillus sp. produced better results.
- Intervention effect Simultaneous co-inoculation with Bradyrhizobium sp., P. graminis and P. durus stood out from all treatments in cowpea development and productivity.
- Recommendation Exopolysaccharides produced by R. tropici and Paenibacillus are an emerging technology for improving cowpea-rhizobia symbiosis.
