- Intervention effect Inoculation increased shoot length by 82.3% over the negative control.
- Intervention effect Inoculation increased shoot dry weight by 196% over the negative control.
- Intervention effect Inoculation increased plant total nitrogen by 452% over the negative control.
- Intervention effect Root length was an exception to the significant improvement with inoculation.
- Observation The isolates were classified as very effective at 20.9%.
- Observation The isolates were classified as effective at 77.4%.
- Observation One isolate was ineffective.
- Observation Indigenous rhizobia ranged from 30 to 5.8 × 103 cells per gram dry soil.
- Intervention effect The pot experiment found no significant shoot dry weight difference among selected rhizobia and nitrogen fertilizer treatments.
- Observation The authors concluded rhizobia inoculation did not improve lentil productivity in investigated soils.
