e0“Performance of 10 different endophytic bacteria on the root nodulation, growth and yields of chickpea”
e3“Combined use of Mesorhizobium sp. with different endophytic bacteria further increased the nodule number by 4.7 to 81.8 per cent, nodule dry weight by 2.3 to 69.3 per cent, and plant dry weight by 2.4 to 66.5 per cent, over Mesorhizobium sp. alone inoculation at different crop stages”
