Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation The bacterial isolates solubilized 65 to 130.5 µg/mL phosphate.
- Observation Phosphate solubilization lowered pH from 5.6 to 3.6.
- Intervention effect Bacterial inoculation significantly increased chickpea growth, shoot phosphorus and nitrogen, nodulation and nitrogenase activity.
- Intervention effect CPS-2, CPS-3 and Ca-18 gave the maximum positive effects on chickpea shoot and nodulation traits.
- Intervention effect Non-solubilizing IFA1 and IFA2 treatments yielded minimum values across measured parameters.
