Effect of Mineral Fertilizer and Plant Growth-Promoting Bacterial Formulations on Yield and Yield Components in Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack)
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate possible effects of mineral NP fertilizer (120 kg ha-1 N and 80 kg ha-1 N P), one commercial liquid bio-fertilizer (CBF) and N2-fixing and P-solubilizing, ACC deaminase-containing and IAA-producing bacteria-based eight bio-fertilizers formulations in triple strains combinations (F1: Pseudomonas putida G08 + Bacillus subtilis RA7 + Bacillus megaterium G81; F2: Pseudomonas koreensis A96 + Bacillus licheniformis A38 + Comamonas sp. A3; F3: Pseudomonas putida A110 + Bacillus megaterium G81; F4: Pseudomonas putida A128 + Pseudomonas stutzeri B171 + Bacillus pumilus A54; F5: Pseudomonas putida A128+ Pseudomonas sp. A71 + Bacillus pumilus A54; F6: Pseudomonas putida G08+ Bacillus subtilis RA7 + Bacillus megaterium RA12; F7: Pseudomonas putida RA1+ Bacillus megaterium G180 + Bacillus atrophaeus RA16; and F8: Pseudomonas stutzeri B171+ Peribacillus simplex B12 + Bacillus megaterium G180) on the growth, yield, and nutrient uptake in Karma-2000 triticale (×Triticosecale Wittmack) cultivar under field conditions of Çanakkale. Applications of wheat with NP, TMG, F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, and F8 increased plant height by 26.7, 9.1, 21.0, 15.8, 23.4, 5.9, 16.0, 19.6, 3.6, and 9.9% as compared to the control; spike length by %18.3, 9.5, 15.5, 8.5, 13.6, 6.6, 11.7, 10.1, 6.3, and 8.5 %; number of spikelet per spike by %12.5, 11.8, 7.2, 7.7, 10.3, 7.7, 7.5, 12.0, 4.7, and 8.1%; number of grain per spike by %21.4, 12.2, 13.2, 14.4, 17.6, 7.8, 11.6, 14.4, 7.0, and 13.1%; grain weight per spike by 22.5, 16.6, 20.5, 18.2, 19.9, 11.8, 17.3, 22.8, 9.7, and 14.7%; grain yield by 29.9, 19.1, 29.6, 26.0, 31.2, 13.7, 24.4, 27.1, 9.8, and 18.6%; straw yield by 34.6, 13.3, 29.5, 20.3, 30.6, 11.4, 23.3, 22.9, 8.4, and 15.3%; chlorophyll content at early dough by 24.8, 9.4, 9.8, 10.0, 23.0, 8.2, 10.1, 12.3, 8.2, and 9.2%; thousand grain weight by 19.3, 18.3, 16.5, 15.5, 20.9, 13.2, 14,2, 17.8, 14.0, and 14.0%, and hectoliter weight by 21.0, 9.8, 15.7, 15.9, 17.2, 5.8, 9.1, 18.8, 5.0, and 9.1%, respectively.
