ABSTRACT

Present study was designed to assess the prospect of fresh phosphate solubilizing bacterial isolates (PSB), to ones, used as PSB-biofertilizer in growth promotion of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). Phosphate-solublizing index (PSI) of 17 isolates varied from 1.692 to 3.033, after seven days incubation. Tricalcium phosphate solubilization by PSB ranged from 309.72 to 615.28 ìg/ml and highest value was recorded for isolate JCA-5. Three most efficient fresh isolates were clustered under the genera Burkholderia, Bacillus and Brevibacillus. The supplementation of elite PSB isolates augmented growth and P-uptake irrespective of edaphic conditions for groundnut. Steady increments in root (22.6% and 25.5%) and shoot length (27.6% and 33.7%), root dry-weight (20.3% and 16.2%),shoot dry-weight (11.3% and 23.3%) and P-uptake (30% and 67%) of groundnut was evident in red-laterite soil and new alluvial soils respectively in comparison to the  previously acknowledged PSB biofertilizers.
