Abstract
An experiment was undertaken to observe the effect of plant growth promoting rhizobacterial inoculation on growth and physiological attributes of bananas grown under hydroponics condition. The design of the experiment was completely randomised with three replications. The following eight treatments were imposed for the experiment: T1 control no N and no PGPR T2 control 33 N and no PGPR T control 100 N and no PGPR T4 no N Azospirillum brasilense strain Sp7 T5 no N a locally isolated Bacillus sp. strain UPMB 1 T6 1/3 N Sp7 T7 1/3 N UPMB 10 and T8 100 N UPMB10. One tissue-cultured banana plantlet cv. ;Berangan; Musa spp. dessert type was planted per tank 1000-L polyethylene tank. The tanks were aerated with air pumps at six-hourly intervals to ensure an uninhibited root respiration and bacterial growth. The results suggested that inoculated plants significantly increased the plant height chlorophyll content SPAD value and leaf area especially with 33 N-fertilization. Net photosynthesis and stomatal conductance were also positively influenced by PGPR inoculation.
