“…The combined application of FYM, Azospirillum, Phosphobacteria and Neem Cake promoted an increase the vine length, both in flowering stage (0.1 m) and harvesting stage (0.11m). Better vine growth in this combination might be due to the increased availability of N due to N fixation and also the production of phytohormones like IAA, GA and Cytokinins like substances (Reynders and Vlanak, 1982). The increased growth on vine length due to combined application of FYM and Azospirillum has also been reported in black pepper (Harris et al 1992and Thanuja, 2002 in ginger (Hussain et al, 2001) and in turmeric (Velmurugan, 2002).…”

India is known as the “Land of spices” from time immemorial and emerged as a leading country in respect of area, production and export of spices in the world. Black pepper (Piper nigrum), known as “king of spices”, is a perennial export cash crop in India. An experiment was conducted at Horticultural Research Station, Yercaud, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore with an objective to study the effect of organic and biofertilizers on growth parameters in Black Pepper. Experiment was laid out with six treatments replicated four times in a randomized block design. Among the treatments of organic manures and biofertilizers viz., vine lengths were recorded at initial stage (before the commencement of trial), flowering stage and harvesting stage. Internodal length and leaf area were recorded at flowering stage and harvesting stage, the vine length (8.91,9.01 & 9.12 m), internodal length (5.11 & 5.20 cm) and leaf area (88.17 & 89.35 cm2 ) was higher in the combined application (T3 ) of FYM, Neem Cake, Azospirillum and Phosphobacteria compare to over control.

“…Several species of legumes, cereals, and tuber crops commonly found in the tropics, associate with N 2 ‐fixing diazotrophs that occur as natural endophytes of plants (Reynders & Vlassak, 1982; James et al ., 1994; James, 2000; Dobbelaere et al ., 2001). Interestingly, the benefits of these endophytes in mixed plant cultures are often ignored in functional analysis of the components, even though some of them make a significant contribution to the growth and N nutrition of cereals such as rice, maize, sugarcane, wheat, sorghum and barley (Dobbelaere et al ., 2001; James, 2000).…”

SummaryThe view that symbiotic legumes benefit companion and subsequent plant species in intercrop and rotation systems is well accepted. However, the major contributions made separately by legumes and their microsymbionts that do not relate to rootnodule N 2 fixation have been largely ignored. Rhizobia (species of Rhizobium , Bradyrhizobium , Azorhizobium , Allorhizobium , Sinorhizobium and Mesorhizobium ) produce chemical molecules that can influence plant development, including phytohormones, lipo-chito-oligosaccharide Nod factors, lumichrome, riboflavin and H 2 evolved by nitrogenase. When present in soil, Nod factors can stimulate seed germination, promote plant growth and increase grain yields of legume and nonlegume crops, as well as stimulate increased photosynthetic rates following plant leaf spraying. Very low concentrations of lumichrome and H 2 released by bacteroids also promote plant growth and increase biomass in a number of plant species grown under field and glasshouse conditions. Rhizobia are known to suppress the population of soil pathogens in agricultural and natural ecosystems and, in addition to forming nodule symbioses with rhizobia, the legume itself releases phenolics that can suppress pathogens and herbivores, solubilize nutrients, and promote growth of mutualistic microbes. Phytosiderophores and organic acid anions exuded by the host plant can further enhance mineral nutrition in the system. This review explores new insights into sole and mixed plant cultures with the aim of identifying novel roles for molecules of legume and microbial origin in natural and agricultural ecosystems.
