Effect of Pseudomonas fluorescens inoculation on yield components and yield of bio-fortified rice

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Seed bio-priming with bio agents is one of the new strategies for management of the crop. Present study revealed that seed bio-priming with Pseudomonas fluorescence enhanced Seed bio priming with Pseudomonas fluorescens significantly increase in plant height (102.75 and 107.83 cm), number of tillers (181.25 and 184.18 tillers/m2), dry matter accumulation (14.24 and 16.64 g/plant), number of effective tillers (175.25 and 178.18 tillers/m2), panicle length (19.08 and 21.25 cm), number of grains/ panicle (124.83 and 127.00) and grain yield (3.38 and 3.42 t/ha) was observed in crop harvesting stage during both the years of experiments and lowest yield attributing characters and yield was found under farmers practices.
