Abstract

The Rhizobium strain isolated from A. lebbeck nodules performed significantly as compared to other rhizobial strains isolated from Delbergia sissoo and Acacia catechu. There was increase in growth parameters viz., plant height (41%), collar diameter (12%), nodule formation (200%) and biomass yield (199%), with rhizobial strain (R3) in comparison with control. The maximum IAA, NH3 excretion and nitrogenase activity was noticed in Rhizobium strains isolated from A. lebbeck and D. sissoo and the lowest was recorded in A. catechu isolate.
