COMBINED EFFECT OF RHIZOBACTERIA AND OLIGOGALACTURONIDES ON THE GROWTH STIMULATION AND YIELD OF BEAN (Vigna unguiculata L)
Keywords:
Vigna ungiculata L.; bioestimulante; oligogalacturónidos; rizobacteria promotora del crecimiento vegetalAbstract
The use of rhizobacteria to promote plant growth is an alternative to the use of chemical fertilizers,
and an ecosystem-friendly option. This research explored the effect of the bacterial inoculant
Bacillus sp. RC138 and three doses of the biostimulant PectinHydrol on morphometric and
productive indicators (plant height, root length, weight and length of pods and yield) of the bean
(Vigna unguiculata L.) variety Lina. A randomized block design of nine treatments with four
replicates was used; the experimental data were processed by mean of a two-factor analysis to
determine the influence of stimulant and bacteria. The positive and determinant effect of the
bacteria combined with the biostimulant PectinHydrol on the parameters evaluated was
demonstrated. The application of the rhizobacterium RC138 in conjunction with PectinHydrol at
20 mg∙L-1was the best combination (p < 0,05). The obtained results offer a new agroecological
alternative for sustainable bean production.
