Isolation & Characterization Of Potash Solubilizing Bacteria In Maize

This book provides an insight for research based on isolation and characterization of potash solubilizing bacteria in maize presentation of data in innovative style. It offers an unparelled learning of pre harvest properties like shoot length, root length, shoot girth and number of leaves per shoot and post harvest properties like number of cobs per plant, cob weight, dry grain wieght and cob yield. It provides insight about the enumeration of KSB in rhizosphere in maize plant illustrated with graphical and analytical approaches. Salient features of this book are 1) Isolation and screening of potassium solubilizing bacteria(KSB) from rhizosphere soils of maize 2) In vitro screening of isolates for potassium solubilization 3) To assess the influence of potent potassium solubilizing bacteria on growth and K uptake in maize plants in pot trial. 4) Field studies of two most efficient isolates found from pot trial.
