Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation The 16S rRNA phylogeny showed rhizobial strains SEMIA 4108 and SEMIA 4107 are closely related to Rhizobium phaseoli, within a clade of 18 other Rhizobium spp. type strains.
- Intervention effect Common bean plants inoculated with SEMIA 4107 showed higher productivity than N-fertilised plants in the second experiment (2018/19).
- Intervention effect The development of inoculated plants differed from that of N-fertilised (N+) plants.
- Intervention effect Compared with the N-fertilised control, inoculated treatments showed no yield or productivity losses at the end of the growing process.
- Intervention effect Inoculation with rhizobial isolates SEMIA 4108 and SEMIA 4107 improved growth and grain yield of common bean plants.
- Intervention effect The authors conclude both strains were effective and can sustain common bean growth without nitrogen fertilisation under the study conditions.
