Influence of seed and transplants inoculation with Bio-fertilizers on growth and yield of cucumber under greenhouse

Abstract

To study Influence of seed and transplants inoculation with some bio fertilizers on growth and yield of Cucumber crop under green house conditions. Experiment was laid out in Split-Split Plot Design with three replicates where biofertilizers was main plots and included (B0) without adding any Bio- fertilizer (control), (B1), Mix (B2), Pseudomonas fluorescence (B3)Mix + Pseudomonas fluorescence (B4)Mycorrhiza (B5)Mix + Mycorrhiza (B6), Pseudomonas fluorescence+Mycorrhiza (B7) and Mix + Pseudomonas fluorescence + Mycorrhiza (B8) and methods of adding Bio- fertilizers (A) was sub-plots and included seeds (A1) and transplants (A2) and varieties (V) was sub-sub-plots, included Sief (V1) Samar(V2) . The results showed that biofertilizers (B7) treatment significantly increased in plant height, yield.plant-1 and yield.house-1 reached 182.7cm, 2164 g and 3246 kg respectively . whereas , interaction between varieties and biofertilizers showed significant increase inV1B7 treatment which gave197.5 cm,2519 g and 3779 kg respectively .as well as, interaction among methods of adding ,varieties and biofertilizers showed significant increase in A2V1B7 treatment which gave 201.7 cm , 2788 g and 4183 kg respectively.
