Nonsymbiotic and Symbiotic Bacteria Efficiency for Legume Growth Under Different Stress Conditions

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Microbes for Legume Improvement

Abstract

In order to achieve maximum crop yields, excessive amounts of expensive fertilizers are applied in intensive farming practices. However, the biological nitrogen fixation via symbiotic and nonsymbiotic bacteria can play a significant role in increasing soil fertility and crop productivity, thereby reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. It is well known that a considerable number of bacterial species, mostly those associated with the plant rhizosphere, are able to exert a beneficial effect on plant growth. The use of those bacteria, often called plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), as biofertilizers in agriculture has been the focus of research for several years. The beneficial impact of PGPR is due to direct plant growth promotion by the production of growth regulators, enhanced access to soil nutrients, disease control, and associative nitrogen fixation. Legumes play a crucial role in agricultural production due to their capability to fix nitrogen in association with rhizobia. Inoculation with nodule bacteria called rhizobia has been found to increase plant growth and seed yields in many legume species such as chickpea, common bean, lentil, pea, soybean, and groundnut. However, both rhizobia and legumes suffer heavily and adversely from various abiotic factors. The impact of different stress factors on both PGPR and legume production is critically reviewed and discussed.
