OAR@ICRISATResponse of Pearl Millet Cultivars to Inoculation with Nitrogen-fixing BacteriaS PWaniauthorSChandrapalaiahauthorP JDartauthorThe results of field experiments conducted with millet cultivars inoculated with different nitrogen-fixing bacteria at the ICRISAT Centre, Hyderabad, India are described. Significant interactions were observed between host cultivars and bacterial strains, but some cultivars showed consistently increased grain and dry matter yields, suggesting the possibility of exploiting suitable plant and nitrogen-fixing bacterial associations for increasing grain yield. Inoculation also resulted in increased nitrogen uptake up to 14.9 kg ha−1, and larger grain nitrogen contents.Millets1985Cambridge University PressArticle
