Abstract

Rhizobium phaseoli strains were isolated from the mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) nodules, and the most salt tolerant and high auxin producing rhizobial isolate N20 was evaluated in the presence and absence of L-tryptophan (L-TRP) for improving the growth and yield of mung bean under saline conditions in a pot experiment. Mung bean seeds were inoculated with peat-based inoculum and NP fertilizers were applied at 30-60 kg/ha, respectively. Results revealed that imposition of salinity reduced the growth and yield of mung bean. On the contrary, the separate application of L-TRP and Rhizobium appeared to mitigate the adverse effects of salt stress. However, their combined application produced more pronounced effects and increased the plant height (28.2%), number of nodules per plant (71.4%), plant biomass (61.2%), grain yield (65.3%), and grain nitrogen concentration (22.4%) compared with untreated control. The growth promotion effect might be due to higher auxin production in the rhizosphere and improved mineral uptake that reduced the adverse effects of salinity. The results imply that supplementing Rhizobium inoculation with L-TRP could be a useful approach for improving the growth and yield of mung bean under salt stress conditions.
