Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Both PGPR inoculants and their mixture combined with different phosphorus rates increased yield attributes and nutrient uptake in sunflower.
- Intervention effect Head diameter, number of achenes per head and 1000-achene weight were highest with 100% P + dual inoculation.
- Intervention effect Achene yield was highest with 100% P + dual inoculation.
- Intervention effect Achene and stover nitrogen content and achene and stover phosphorus content were highest with 100% P + dual inoculation.
- Intervention effect BCR was highest with 100% P + dual inoculation.
- Intervention effect 50% phosphorus + dual inoculation produced statistically the same results as the recommended phosphorus (100%) in sunflower.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus use efficiency and phosphorus recovery efficiency were maximum when 50% phosphorus was applied together with dual inoculation.
- Recommendation The authors suggest that plant growth promoting rhizobacteria are a promising component for improving phosphorus use efficiency and productivity of sunflower.
