Abstract

Yoğun tarım, aşırı gübre kullanımını zorunlu kılmaktadır. Yüksek verim için fazla girdi kullanan tarım sistemleri çevresel
problemlere ve doğal kaynakların tükenmesine yol açmaktadır. Gübre uygulamasını minimum, bitki gelişme ve beslenmesini maksimum
düzeye çıkarmak amacıyla rizosferden seçilmiş farklı mikroorganizmalar kullanılmaktadır. Bitki gelişimini teşvik eden rizobakteriler
(PGPR) bitki gelişimine faydalı etkileri nedeniyle biyolojik gübre (BG) olarak kullanılmaktadır. Biyogübreler sürdürülebilir tarım için
büyük öneme sahiptir. Mikrobiyal türlerdeki geniş genetik varyasyon, farklı çevre koşullarına adapte olabilen yüksek potansiyele sahip
mikroorganizmaların belirlenebileceğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu nedenle geniş deneme koşullarında seçilecek etkin türlere gereksinin
vardır.

Keywords

Biyolojik gübre (BG), Bitki gelişme promotörü rizobakteriler (PGPR), biyolojik azot fiksasyonu (BNF), inokulasyon, biyolojik kontrol
