Effect of Bioenraiz® inoculation and its final fermentation on the growth and physiology of rice (Oryza sativa L.), cultivar ¨Selección 1¨
Main Article Content
Abstract
A little evidence in Cuba addresses the biostimulant effect of Bioenraiz® in agriculture which has high concentration of metabolites with auxinic activity. The objective of the work was determine the effect of Bioenraiz® and the final product resulting from the fermentation with the strain Rhizobium sp. on the growth and some physiological parameters of the rice cultivar “Selección 1”. Seedlings roots of rice cultivar “Selección 1” were soaked in both bioproducts for twenty minutes, and later they were transplanted into pots with Red Ferralitic soil. The plants were maintained in semi-controlled conditions for 60 days and then the plant height, root length, dry weight of the aerial and root parts, the total content of chlorophylls a, b and total chlorophylls and the total content of carotenoids were determined. Bioenraiz® produced positive effects on the root length and root dry weight of rice plants. No effect of both products was seen on the chlorophyll and carotenoid content. This is the first report in Cuba when a beneficial effect of Bioenraiz® was showed in rice crop.
