Abstract
The present investigation was conducted to study the effect of bio-fertilizer (Barvar-2) and phosphorus on quantity and quality characteristics of marigold ( Tagetes erecta L.). A factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design (RCBD) with four replications was carried out with two factors including methods of bio-fertilizer (Barvar-2) application (without bio-fertilizer inoculation, seed inoculation, root inoculation and seed plus root inoculation), and different levels of chemical phosphorus (100, 200, 300 and 400 mg l -1 ). In the present study, plant height, the number of leaf per plant, shoot fresh weight, shoot dry matter percentage, the content of total phosphorus of cultivation media and shoot and flower diameter were measured. Results revealed that the application of bio-fertilizer and phosphorus was significant on most characters in 1% probability level. The interaction effect of biofertilizer and phosphorus was not significant on studied characters except for total shoot phosphorus and the number of leaf per plant. The best plant height (26.87 cm), the number of leaf per plant (56.27), flower diameter (84.420 mm), shoot fresh weight (19.94 g) and total shoot phosphorus (0.353%) was obtained under inoculation of seeds and roots with bio-fertilizer × 400 mg l -1 phosphorus. Maximum of shoot dry matter (19.86%) and total medium phosphorus (0.235%) was calculated in treatments of 200 mg l -1 phosphorus without bio-fertilizer inoculation and 200 mg l -1 phosphorus with seed inoculation, respectively.
