Abstract

A study was conducted to examine the effect of inoculum association between Rhizobium sp., mycorrhizae and Merapi-indigenous Rhizobacteria on the growth and yield of 3 soybean cultivars, and to determine the best inoculum and cultivars for soybean cultivation on coastal sandy soil. The study was conducted in the Agro-biotechnology and Research Laboratory and experimental station of Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta during the period of September 2015 to June 2016. Experiments were conducted by using coastal sandy soil as planting medium in polybags by employing 4 x 3 factorial experiments, arranged in completely randomised design, and placed under the field condition. The first factor used was inoculation treatment consisted of 4 combination of inoculums: (1) Rhizobium sp. – mycorrhizae, (2) Rhizobium sp. – Merapi-indigenous Rhizobacteria, (3) Rhizobium sp. – mycorrhizae – Merapi-indigenous Rhizobacteria, and (4) without inoculation. The second factor was soybean cultivars consisted of 3 varieties: (1) Grobogan, (2) Detam-1, and (3) Petek. Observation was carried out on nodulation, mycorrhizal effect, Rhizobacterial population dynamics, plant growth and yield. The results showed that Rhizobium sp.–mycorrhizae inoculated on Petek increased root growth, leaf area and yield (5,97 tonnes/ha). Rhizobium sp.–mycorrhizae inoculation only increased diameter of nodules. It was also observed that the best soybean cultivar for coastal sandy soil was Petek.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the role of the indigenous rhizobacteria from Merapi as a substitute for compost in rice cultivation on coastal sandy land under drought stress. The study was a single-factor experiment, with types and doses of compost as treatments, arranged in a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of seven treatments and three replications. The seven treatments tested were cow manure compost at doses of 30 and 40 tons/ha, chicken manure compost at doses of 30 and 40 tons/ha, Azolla compost at doses of 20 and 30 tons/ha, and without compost as a control treatment. Each experimental unit consisted of three plants for destructive sampling, three sample plants, and a substitute plant. The application of cow manure compost at a dose of 30 tons/ha to the rice plants inoculated with MB and MD isolates of Merapi indigenous rhizobacteria resulted in the best growth at five weeks after planting, which was not significantly different from that without compost application. This result indicated that the rice plants cv. Segreng Handayani inoculated with Merapi indigenous rhizobacteria, cultivated on coastal sandy soil under drought stress, even without the application of compost, could give the same responses as the plants treated with various types and doses of compost.
