A field experiment was conducted at Allahabad Agricultural Institute- Deemed University, Allahabad to study the effect of levels of phosphorus, sulphur and Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) on growth, yield and nutrient content of blackgram for consecutive two years 2004 and 2005. The crop growth parameters viz., plant height, number of nodules and number of leaves per plant, yield and nutrient content increased significantly with the application of high levels of phosphorus, sulphur with or without bio-fertilizer inoculation. Application of 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 recorded maximum plant height (49.9 cm), number of leaves plant-1 (50.8), number of nodules plant-1 (27.8), haulm yield (28.9 q ha-1), grain yield (8 q ha-1) and phosphorus, sulphur and protein content of grain (0.356 %, 0.253% and 22.64%, respectively) as compared to lower levels. Application of Sulphur @ 40 kg ha-1 recorded maximum plant height (47.31 cm), number of leaves plant-1 (49.80), number of nodules plant-1 (25.58), haulm yield (28.80 q ha-1), grain yield (7.92 q ha-1) and phosphorus, sulphur and protein content (0.295 , 0.281 and 21.79%, respectively). Inoculation of blackgram seeds with phosphorus solubilizing bacteria recorded slightly higher grain yield (7.49 q ha-1) as compared to no inoculation (7.39 q ha-1).

Phytotoxicity of wild plants is sometimes utilized in the control of weeds. Their effects on crops are however not extensively documented. Effects of aqueous extracts of Olax subscorpioidea Oliv. were thus examined on seeds and seedlings of maize. Two experiments were laid out in complete randomized designs (CRD) and replicated five times. Ten seeds of maize were initially placed in separate petri-dishes and moistened daily with two (2) ml water extracts of different parts of Olax sp. while 2 ml of distilled water served as control. Secondly, maize seedlings growing on top soil in experimental pots were treated with 100 ml of extracts at seven days intervals for eight weeks. Data were collected on number of germinated seeds daily, and lengths of five randomly selected plumules and radicles at 7 days after sowing (DAS). Number of leaves, plant height, root dry weight and shoot dry weight of seedling were measured using standard methods. Analysis of variance and Duncan’s Multiple Range Test were conducted to statistically determine significant means at P=0.05. Mean germination of (0.71±0.00) was observed at 2 DAS and 2.81±0.10 at 7 DAS. Leaf extracts significantly reduced germinability, but significantly increased number of leaves, plant height (26±1.28), root dry weight (10.30±3.24) and shoot dry weight (14.99±2.13). The results showed that Olax subscorpioidea has alloallelopathic (phytotoxic) effects on maize seeds, but stimulated growth of maize seedlings. Its use as a bio-herbicide or growth stimulant in should be well-timed.

Aims: To assess the growth attribute of NERRICA- L19 rice in three salt-affected Agricultural soils amended with Gypsum from the Ho- Keta plain in the Volta region, Ghana. Study Design: Complete Randomized Design. Place and Duration of Study: Soil Research Institute, Kwadaso, Kumasi between June 2016 and July 2019. Methodology: Approximately 2.6 kg of the soil samples were taken from three different sites, namely, Anyako, Anyenui and Atiehife and were mixed thoroughly with different rates 0%, 75% and 100% of Gypsum, (CaSO4.2H2O) and filled into thirty six perforated polyvinyl plastic pots. The pots were saturated with water and incubated for 24 h. Twenty-one-day old seedlings of NERRICA- L 19 rice were transplanted into the pots, arranged in a randomized complete design and leached for four weeks. Core sample of the soils from each pot were taken and analyzed at the end of the experiment. Data on growth attributes (plant height, number of leaves and number of tillers) and leave tissue compositions (Ca, Mg, K, Na, P and N) were measured. Results: The study revealed that Gypsum rates at (75 and 100%) increased the growth attributes and tissue concentrations of NERRICA- L 19 rice compared to the control. Growth parameters, such as plant height, number of leaves and tiller for Anyako, Anyenui and Atiehife soils, increased as Gypsum levels increased with significant differences in the height of the plants and the number of plant leaves recorded (P = 0.05).  However there was no significant difference in tillers growth recorded for Atiehife soil, compared to Anyako and Anyenui soils (P = 0.05). The chemical constituents of the leave tissue, showed high composition of calcium and potassium than magnesium, while the composition of sodium decreased. The concentration of calcium, magnesium and potassium increased significantly at (P = 0.05) in Anyako and Atiehife soils with no-significant level in Anyenui soil. The trend was the same for the concentration of sodium. The concentration of nitrogen and phosphorus increased as the level of treatment increased. In respect to P accumulation, the differences were not significant in Atiehife soils, but was significant in Anyako and Anyenui soils. Conclusion: Gypsum application significantly enhanced nutrient uptake and increased the growth attributes of NERRICA - L19 rice compared to the control. Atiehife soil responded better to the reclamation process than the remaining soils, showing high growth performance. Gypsum applied at the rate of 16.92 kg/ha was recommended for adoption.

A field experiment on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) was conducted at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur during February 2009 to April 2009 to find out the optimum seed rate in relation to sowing methods for maximizing foliage yield of coriander. Four genotypes (CS001, CS002, CS003 and CS008) and three sowing methods (continuous line sowing spaced at 10 cm, 20 cm and broadcast method) and three levels of seed rate (30, 40 and 50 kg/ha) were used as treatment variables.. The result showed that genotype CS003 singly gave the maximum plant height, number of leaves/plant, single plant weight and plant weight/m2 and thus gave the highest foliage yield/ha. Line sowing (10 cm), broadcast method with seed rate @ 50 kg/ha independently produced the maximum foliage weight/m2 and foliage yield/ha. Line sowing (10 cm) with 50 kg/ha seed rate produced the highest foliage yield in case of CS001, CS002 and CS003 genotypes, which was closely followed by broadcast method and the same seed rate. But line sowing (10 cm) as well as broadcast method coupled with 40 kg/ha seed rate gave better foliage yield in genotype CS008. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjar.v38i3.16970 Bangladesh J. Agril.

SummaryEnhancement of the resistance level in plants by rhizobacteria has been proven in several pathosystems. This study investigated the ability of four rhizobacteria strains (Pseudomonas putida BTP1 and Bacillus subtilis Bs2500, Bs2504 and Bs2508) to promote the growth in three barley genotypes and protect them against Cochliobolus sativus. Our results demonstrated that all tested rhizobacteria strains had a protective effect on barley genotypes Arabi Abiad, Banteng and WI2291. However, P. putida BTP1 and B. subtilis Bs2508 strains were the most effective as they reduced disease incidence by 53 and 38% (mean effect), respectively. On the other hand, there were significant differences among the rhizobacteria-treated genotypes on plant growth parameters, such as wet weight, dry weight, plant height and number of leaves. Pseudomonas putida BTP1 strain was the most effective as it significantly increased plant growth by 15-32%. In addition, the susceptible genotypes Arabi Abiad and WI2291 were the most responsive to rhizobacteria. This means that these genotypes have a high potential for increase of their resistance against the pathogen and enhancement of plant growth after the application of rhizobacteria. Consequently, barley seed treatment with the tested rhizobacteria could be considered as an effective biocontrol method against C. sativus.

An experiment was conducted with a local cultivar of garlic to study the effects of planting date and gibberellic acid on the growth and yield of garlic at the field laboratory of the Department of Crop Botany, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during November 2001 to April 2002. Early planting influenced the plant height, leaf number, bulb diameter and total dry matter. With the delay in planting time starting from November 7, the yield was chronologically reduced in later plantings. Significantly the highest bulb yield (2.67 t/ha) was recorded when planting was done on November 7 and lowest yield (0.92 t/ha) was obtained from December 22 planted crop. Bulb yield was higher in control plants than those of GA3 treated plants. The interaction effects of planting date and different concentrations of GA3 differed significantly in respect of plant height, number of leaves, bulb diameter and dry weight of roots, leaves and bulbs and yield of garlic.
