“…Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient that can limit normal plant growth if not provided by the soil or by appropriate quantities of fertilizer (Chaudhary et al, 2008). The role of P in legume development, root proliferation, nodulation, and biological N 2 fixation is well recognized (Singh et al, 2005; Schulze et al, 2006). Phosphorus deficiency in legumes reduces leaf area; decreases the number of leaves, nodes, and branches; and slows down the relative leaf appearance rate (Chaudhary et al, 2008).…”

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] has increasing nutritional, commercial, and economical value, and P and K nutrition may be needed to increase yield and profi t. A 2-yr (2008-2009) fi eld experiment with rainfed soybean was conducted in the hilly region of the state of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), at Rawalakot, Pakistan. Th e aim of the study was to evaluate the eff ects of P-K fertilization on soybean root nodulation, seed yield, seed composition and N, P, and K uptake. Th e experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Treatments included three levels of P (60, 90, and 120 kg P 2 O 5 ha -1 ), two levels of K (40 and 80 kg K 2 O ha -1 ), and a control, represented as P 0 , P 60 , P 90 , P 120 and K 0 , K 40 , and K 80 , respectively. Results indicated that number of root nodules increased with P-K fertilization to 75 and 136 compared with 68 in the control. Yield responses to P-K fertilization occurred to all rates, and the highest yield was observed in the combined treatment of P 120 K 40 . Total N, P, and K uptake in the plant (shoot + seed) tended to follow yield responses, while seed protein was increased by 8 to 13% due to P and 11 to 19% due to K. Application of P or K alone or in combination signifi cantly increased oil content. Th is study demonstrates that P-and K-defi cient soils are likely to produce crops with low yields and low seed oil levels, and appropriate P-K management could be an eff ective approach to increase and sustain soybean production in the mountain ecosystems.

“…5). In legumes, P influences the number, weight, and activity of nodules (de Mooy and Pesek, 1966; Cassman et , 1980;Matsunaga and Matsumoto, 1984;Konno et al, 1990;Chaudhary and Fujita, 1998;Singh et al, 2005). In our pot experiments, nodule number increased with the amount of P applied (Table 1), and the amount of nitrogen accumulated increased with the P accumulation level even when nitrogen fertilizer was not applied.…”

“…The roles of P in legume development are root proliferation, increase of nodulation number and weight, and stimulation of nodule activity (de Mooy and Pesek, 1966;Cassman et al, 1980;Matsunaga and Matsumoto, 1984;Konno et al, 1990;Chaudhary and Fujita, 1998;Singh et al, 2005). Phosphorus deficiency in legumes reduces leaf area, photosynthetic rate, and the numbers of nodes and branches (Qiu and Israel, 1992;Chaudhary et al, 2008).…”

“…Among various phosphorus solubilizing microorganisms, phosphate solubilizes bacteria are very useful natural microbes that they can change the soil mineral phosphate to soluble phosphorus by production of organic acids and phosphatases acid (Rodriguez & Fraga, 1999). Pseudomonas as one of the most important plant growth-promoting bacteria (Singh et al, 2005;Malboobi et al, 2009) can make 70% of unavailable phosphorus, readily available for plant absorption (Chen, 2006;Kothamasi et al, 2006). Present study was conducted to explore the effect of simultaneous application of boron, manganese and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria on the nutritional composition and plant growth and development of alfalfa crop in Iran environmental condition.…”

This study was conducted to explore the effect of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), boron (Borax and Boric acid) and manganese (manganese chelate and manganese sulfate) based fertilizers on forage production of alfalfa. Experiment was laid in a split plot factorial in the form of randomized complete block design with phosphorus bio-fertilizer rates (0 and 100 g.ha -1 ) in main plots, while boron (0, Borax foliar application of 1.0 lit.ha -1 and Boric acid soil application 10 kg. ha -1) and manganese fertilizer (0, manganese chelate foliar application 1.0 lit.ha -1 and manganese sulfate soil application 10 kg. ha -1) were used in sub plots. The results showed that the highest dried forage yield was obtain by boron and manganese foliar application and bio-phosphorus utilization about 24.00 t/ha. Thus, triple application of PSB, Mn and B (100 g.ha -1 as soil application and 1.0 lit.ha -1 of each Mn and B solutions) could be recommended as the best treatment for improve forage yield of alfalfa (cv. Ranger) under the experiment environmental conditions.
