Abstract
In the present study a pot experiment was conducted with 9 treatments to evaluate performance of chickpea under influence of two microbial consortia along with individual members of the consortia. These two consortia C1 (GmR8+AZO137+ASL3+ASL4) and C2 (GmR8+AZO137+ASL47) were selected from previous study. Among all the treatment, C1 (GmR8, Azo137, ASL3&ASL4) increased significantly increase the shoot length (36.10 cm), shoot weight (9.59g) as compared to the control (27.10 cm, 7.06g, respectively) after 45 DAS. Further C1 also has maximum root length (27.00 cm) and root biomass (7.30g) as compared to other treatments. Highest nodulation was observed with treatment T5 i.e. Chickpea+GmR8+75%NPK i.e. 39.33 nodule /plant, however nodulation in treatment T3 associated with C1 were also significant (38.00) as compared to control (12.33). Highest N accumulation % was observed in plant Treatment T5 (9.48/plant) were also significant (9.14) as compared to control (1.87) it has been found that in treatment T3 50% flowering occurred within (32day). Over all study reveals the better performance of the consortia over individual bacteria. Further it was also interesting that nodulation by rhizobium culture (GmR8) was not much affected when inoculated along with other PGPR.
