Partial substitution of exogenously applied phosphatic fertilizers by phosphate solubilizing bacteria in maize under calcareous soil
Phosphorus (P) availability is the major constrain in obtaining optimum crop yield in calcareous soils due to its precipitation as dicalcium and octacalcium phosphate by reacting with Ca+2 and Mg+2. Therefore, we explored the role of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (without and with PSB @ 2 kg ha−1)...
