Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Rhizobium numbers rose in the first two days after planting, then fell rapidly.
- Intervention effect Benomyl seed coating slowed the decline of Rhizobium.
- Intervention effect Benomyl reduced rhizosphere bacteria and protozoa, with an effect that waned as plants grew.
- Association Rhizobium numbers were usually lower with protozoa present in inoculated sterile soil.
- Intervention effect Benomyl increased soybean yield in inoculated sterile soil.
- Intervention effect Streptomycin and erythromycin stimulated Rhizobium growth with or without soybeans.
- Intervention effect Streptomycin and erythromycin inhibited other soil bacteria with or without soybeans.
