Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Bradyrhizobium SR-6 contained seven detected acyl homoserine lactones differing significantly from earlier soybean symbiont reports.
- Intervention effect Purified AHL extracts significantly improved wheat seedling growth and root hair development under axenic conditions.
- Intervention effect Purified AHL extracts increased soybean nodulation under axenic conditions.
- Association Nitrogenase and catalase enzyme activities in strain SR-6 were positively correlated.
- Observation Catalase activity was localized within bacteroids attached to the peribacteroidal membrane.
- Observation Root and nodule colonization demonstrated rhizosphere competence of SR-6.
- Intervention effect SR-6 inoculation increased soybean shoot length by 13% versus non-inoculated plants.
- Intervention effect SR-6 inoculation increased soybean plant dry matter by 50%.
- Intervention effect SR-6 inoculation increased soybean grain weight by 16%.
- Intervention effect SR-6 inoculation increased soybean seed yield by 20%.
- Intervention effect SR-6 inoculation increased soybean N-uptake by 14%.
- Recommendation The authors suggest SR-6 could improve soybean growth and yield in the named sub-humid region of Pakistan.
