Published 2016 in International Journal of Plant and Soil Science

ABSTRACT

Microbial transformation of soil unavailable zinc (Zn) into available form is an important agronomical approach not only to alleviate the Zn deficiency of stable food crops but also to improve the nutritional quality of human diet. Zinc solubilizing bacteria (ZSB) as an inoculant to the crop plants could be a sustainable input for Zn-fertilization as well as for Zn-biofortification. In order to explore these bacteria, we have conducted a microcosm study to assess its potential in terms of Zn availability in three different soils of semi-arid tropics and its interaction effects with different insoluble Zn amendments.....
