It was found that the phosphorus (P) and nitrogen uptake in wheat shoots were significantly greater for a low application rate of BMCs (100 kg ha−1). The present formulation of BMC was effective in enhancing growth of wheat at low application rate (100 kg ha−1). The increase in growth appeared due to an increase in P uptake in the plants that could be partly attributed to an increase in mycorrhizal colonisation and partly due to the properties of the BMC.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:33:06 AEDT ]]>
