Abstract
MARIN BRUZOS, Marieta et al. Interaction among Tsukamurella paurometabola C-924 and Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseoli CFH in bean plants. Acta Agron. [online]. 2013, vol.62, n.1, pp.52-58. ISSN 0120-2812.
The experiment was carried out to evaluate the interaction between Tsukamurella paurometabola C-924 and Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseoli CFH in bean plants. Treatments consisted of non-inoculated plants (control), plants inoculated with T. paurometabola C-924, inoculated with R. leguminosarum biovar phaseoli CFH and inoculated with both strains. The application of the microorganisms single or in coinoculation improved the germination of seeds. T. paurometabola C-924 did not enhanced Rhizobium nodulation. However, no significant differences were found among treatments for shoot height and diameter. There was an increase in number of leaves in the plants inoculated with T. paurometabola C-924. We concluded that the interaction between T. paurometabola C-924 and R. leguminosarum biovar phaseoli CFH improved the number of leaves and the germination of seeds and even though T. paurometabola C-924 did not enhance nodulation, this fact did not affect the plants growth.
