ABSTRACT
In the recent times, there has been a reversed interest in the search of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for sustainable crop production. The present investigation was evaluated to growth promoting activities in pulse crop such as chickpea, blackgram, and greengram by using different thirteen combination of P. fluorescens, Trichoderma sp. and Rhizobium sp. Thirteen treatment used which were P. fluorescens seed, soil, spray, seed+soil, seed+spray, spray+soil, seed+soil+spray, P. fluorescens(spray)+Trichoderma sp.(soil), P. fluorescens(soil)+Trichoderma sp.(spray), P. fluorescens(seed)+Rhizobium sp.(seed), P. fluorescens(seed)+Rhizobium sp.(seed)+Trichoderma sp.(spray), P.fluorescens (spray) + Rhizobium sp. (seed) +Trichoderma sp.(soil). After 14 days of uprooting of crop found that significantly higher vigour index in T4 (3080.72) treatment of chickpea, T1 (2604.00) treatment of green gram and T1 (2068.11) treatment of black gram. All treatment combination increases root length, shoot length and overall vigour index as compared to control in all pulse crops.
