Bradyrhizobium and Azospirillumco-inoculation associated with cobalt and molybdenum application in the soybean crop

Co-inoculation between bacteria of the genera Bradyrhizobium and Azospirillum can enhance the nodulation and promote the development of the soybean [Glycine max (L.)

Description
Summary:Co-inoculation between bacteria of the genera Bradyrhizobium and Azospirillum can enhance the nodulation and promote the development of the soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] root system, contributing to the increase in grain yield, in addition to the reduction in production costs and contamination of natural resources. Cobalt (Co) and molybdenum (Mo) use can also favor biological nitrogen fixation. The research evaluated the co-inoculation effect of bacteria associated with the Co and Mo application in soybean crop. The randomized blocks design was employed, in a 2 x 6 factorial scheme, presence and absence of Co and Mo and five ways of using the products Bradyrhizobium and Azospirillum, plus control, with four replications. The treatments were formed by the control (not inoculated + 20 kg N ha-1); seed inoculation with Bradyrhizobium (100 mL ha-1) + 20 kg N ha-1; seed inoculation with Bradyrhizobium (100 mL ha-1) and three treatments applying Bradyrhizobium + Azospirillum in furrow, in different doses. Height of insertion of the first pod, total number of pods and grains per plant, weight of 100 grains and grain yield were evaluated. Inoculation of Bradyrhizobiumjaponicum associated with co-inoculation of Azospirillumbrasilense via foliar and Co and Mo, provided increases in the number of pods per plant, number of grains per pod and weight of 100 grains, reflecting increases in grain yield.The use of Co and Mo, on average, increased soybean yield by 10%, resulting in an average yield of 4,904 kg ha-1. RESUMO: A co-inoculação entre bactérias do gênero Bradyrhizobium e Azospirillum pode potencializar a nodulação e promover o desenvolvimento do sistema radicular da soja [Glycine max (L.) Merrill], contribuindo com o aumento na produtividade de grãos, além da redução nos custos de produção e contaminação dos recursos naturais. A utilização de cobalto (Co) e molibdênio (Mo), também pode favorecer a fixação biológica de nitrogênio. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da co-inoculação de bactérias associadas a aplicação de Co e Mo na cultura da soja. O delineamento utilizado foi de blocos casualizados, em esquema fatorial 2 x 6, na presença e ausência de Co e Mo e cinco formas de utilização dos produtos Bradyrhizobium e Azospirillum, mais controle, com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram formados pela testemunha (não inoculada + 20 kg de N ha-1); inoculação com Bradyrhizobium na semente (100 mL ha-1) + 20 kg de N ha-1; inoculação de sementes com Bra
