Article Synopsis
  • The study explored the potential of selecting efficient rhizobia and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) from fenugreek nodules to enhance growth in intercropped fenugreek and barley.
  • Sinorhizobium meliloti F42 was identified as a strong candidate for improving fenugreek growth, while Variovorax paradoxus F310 also showed significant plant growth-promoting abilities in greenhouse conditions.
  • Field trials indicated that inoculation led to notable enhancements in plant nodulation, nutrient content, and overall growth, with varying effectiveness depending on rainfall conditions, especially more efficient in low-rainfall regions, underscoring the importance of environmental factors in these interactions.
