“…F Bi ) could decrease ADF (Table 3). Reducing ADF and increasing IVDMD as a result of biological P fertilizer application has been reported earlier [11]. No significant difference between P fertilizers observed in this study convinced us that the biological P fertilizer could be considered as a promising substitute for chemical fertilizer in this regard.…”

Turnip has a high potential to produce abundant nutritious and valuable forage when availability of perennial warm and cool-season species is limited. Water deficit and fertility affect not only growth and yield of crops but also their quality and nutritional value. To evaluate the effect of different phosphorous fertilizers on forage yield and quality of turnip under deficit irrigation regimes, a field experiment was conducted during 2009. The experimental treatments arranged as split plots were five levels of irrigation, no irrigation (IR 0), irrigation at sowing time (IR 1), irrigation at sowing time ? commencement of tuber formation (IR 2), (irrigation at sowing time ? commencement of tuber formation ? commencement of stem elongation (IR 3) and normal irrigation (IR N), assigned to main plots and four levels of fertilizers, no fertilizer (F Co), 100 % F Ch (100 % chemical fertilizer), seed inoculation by Pseudomonas putida (F Bi), 50 % F Ch ? F Bi , assigned to subplots. The maximum forage yield was obtained at IR N , which followed a decreasing trend as the number of irrigations decreased. The best phosphorous fertilizer treatments affecting forage yield were 100 % F Ch and 50 % F Ch ? F Bi in sequence. As the water stress increased, in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), metabolizable energy, and protein yield followed a decreasing trend while in the same situation the crude protein, water soluble carbohydrates, acid detergent fiber, and ash content followed an increasing trend.

“…However, it is evident from the results that AM fungus (although not significantly) was more effective on the improvement of forage digestibility (due to less fibre) than PGPR and its combined use with AM fungus. Reducing ADF and increasing DMD (more suitable quality of crop forage) as a result of biological P fertilizer application have been reported earlier (Fateh, 2008). The positive effect of P element on CP content of turnip and artichoke has been reported by Turk, Albayrak, Balabanli, and Yuksel (2009) and Salamah (1997) respectively.…”

To investigate the effects of seed inoculation with phosphate affecting microorganisms on the quantitative and qualitative traits of two forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.)), genotypes were investigated during 2011 and 2012 field experiments. The experimental treatments consisted of chemical (triple super phosphate (TP)), and biological P fertilizers [mycorrhizal fungus (Rhizophagus intraradices) (AM) + Pseudomonas fluorescens strain 93 (PB)] as well as sorghum genotypes (Speedfed and Jumbo) factorially arranged on the basis of a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results revealed that seed inoculation by AM fungi and its combined inoculation with PB significantly influenced sorghum growth, P concentration and acid detergent fibre (ADF%). Rhizophagus intraradices appeared to be better adapted for association with sorghum than P. fluorescens strain 93 under the environmental conditions of the experiment. The significant differences in the quantity and quality of the two genotypes as affected by chemical and biological fertilization indicate the importance of selecting the right genotype, which results in higher growth and yields with a better forage quality. Although in most cases, the biological fertilization was the more recommendable, the use of chemical P fertilization up to some level was essential for the production of sorghum forage yield affecting crop quality. It is more beneficial to use the integrated beneficial microorganisms (AM + PB) instead of their single use to achieve better crop growth, yield and nutrient status for both plant and soil health.

“…According to the results of variance analysis conducted in order to determine the effects of the kind of fertilizer on the plant vegetative growth of eggplant it was found significant at 5% level (p˂0.05). [17,18,19,15] also reported significant differences in vegetative growth with the application of different fertilizer sources. According to the LSD test there are 2 groups, DOF, OF, CHF treatment, in A group and the control in B group.…”

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of organic and chemical fertilizers on yield and plant vegetative growth of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) between 22.05.2018 and 12.09. 2018 under field conditions in Bandırma, Turkey. Treatments were control with no fertilizer (CONT), developed organic fertilizer (DOF), organic fertilizer (OF) chemical fertilizer (CHF), each treatment has 3 replicates with 360 plants. Developed organic fertilizer and OF were applied in (2000) kg.da-1, chemical fertilizer (15%N, 15%P, 15%K, 20%SO3) was applied in 40 kg/da. Yield and plant vegetative growth weight were determined. Organic and chemical fertilizer applications had a significant effect (P<0.05) on yield and plant vegetative growth. The eggplant yield at CONT, DOF, OF, CHF were 3922, 4593, 4375, 4579 kg.da-1 respectively. The plant vegetative growth (Plant organs fresh weight) at CONT, DOF, OF, CHF were 3548, 4018, 3818, 3882 kg.da-1 respectively. The difference between fertilizers (DOF, OF, and CHF) was not significant so that organic fertilizers are competitive and may be a suitable replacement for chemical fertilizer.
