Effect of synthetic auxins with N2 fixing bacteria on different characters affecting growth and yield in nodulated wheat
Year: 2016
Type: article
Abstract: In wheat variety C-306, nodule like outgrowths were introduced using, 2,4-D, IBA and NAA in N2 free Hoagland solution. These seedlings were inoculated with Azorhizobium caulinodans (ORS 571) and Nostoc(mixed strain). These treated seedlings were then transferred to pot culture in natural conditions. A set of uninoculated seedlings was also raised in same conditions. Nodule number, ARA and photosynthetic rate was highest in 2,4-D induced seedlings inoculated with Azorhizobium caulinodans while total dry weight, tiller number, leaf area was highest in IBA with Nostoc and most significantly NPK content was also maximum in this combination. Yield was highest in IBA treated seedlings inoculated with Azorhizobium caulinodans. PGR
