Abstract |
Two field experiments were conducted on two soil types, i.e., calcareous and sand soils located at West Nubaria and El Bostan regions respectively, Egypt, during the growing season of 2004. The current work aims to evaluate the effect of inoculation with Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (VAM) and Phosphate Dissolving Bacteria (PDB, cited as a commercial product from Agriculture Research Center and called Phosphorin) on some soil physical properties, availability of P, some rnicronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn & Cu) as well as their up-take by faba bean plants (Vicia faba L.) grown on the studied soils. VAM or PDB was used solely or in combination with three different levels of P-mineral supply for each of the studied soils (mono-super¬phosphate, 15.5% P:O5). Some plant parameters such as no. of nodules/plant, weight of nodules/plant, dry weight/plant, 100 seed weight and seed yield were also determined. The results obtained revealed that inoculation with VAM tended to decrease the values of soil bulk density in both the studied soils. It also caused an increase in the infiltration rate of calcareous soil, while an opposite trend was observed in the sandy one. Moreover, inoculation with VAM and PDB as solely or dually under the applied three P-mineral levels supply enhanced P and rnicronutrients availability in soil, consequently tended to increase their up-take by faba bean plants. These beneficial effects were positively reflected on each of the studied plant parameters of faba bean grown on both calcareous and sandy soils under consideration
