Inoculation and application of different doses of Azospirillum brasilense and its influence on the development of corn culture
Journal Title: Uningá Review - Year 2021, Vol 36, Issue 1
Abstract
Benefits in grain productivity, with low economic cost, ease of application, without causing toxic damage to the environment and with high potential for crop response, are target points in research involving the cultivation of corn. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation of Azospirillum brasilense on the vegetative structures of the corn crop, envisioning an increase in the development of the plant. The experimental design used was completely randomized, with six treatments and four replications, totaling 24 experiments. Seeds were inoculated with A. brasilense in different doses of the commercial product (0 - 1000 mL), where the plant height (AP), ear insertion height (AIE), stem diameter (DC), total number of leaves (NTF) and number of leaves below the first ear (NFAE), were evaluated. The inoculation of corn seeds based on A. brasilense strain Ab-V5 promoted influence on some biometric variables, with an increase in the total number of leaves (NTF), plant height (AP) and height of ear insertion (AIE) for the evaluated hybrid, resulting in increments in its vegetative development. The dosage of 549 mL per hectare was considered as favorable to result in greater amounts of total leaves (NTF) in the plant, according to the adjustment of the proposed model. The results emphasized that inoculation with this strain is a valid technique and is increasingly used by farmers, and its study is a contributing factor for improvements in agronomic parameters.
