Abstract

The native P-solubilizing rhizobial isolates R₁ and R₂ enhanced nodule number and dry weight, root and shoot dry weight, chlorophyll, N and P content and grain yield as compared to non P- solubilizing rhizobia. Native rhizobia R₁ and R2 along with P @ 40 kg P2O5/ha were found to augment the efficiency of applied P which enhanced symbiotic parameters and significantly improved yields of fieldpea.
