TLDR
It has been observed that in the case of Vigna radiata and Glycine max incorporation of suitable strain of Azotobacter gave higher yield than obtained by the use of Rhizobium as inoculant, and it may be possible that statistically higher yield may be obtained after screening a large number of strains of AzOTobacter from the rhizosphere of pea.
Abstract
It has been observed that in the case ofVigna radiata andGlycine max incorporation of suitable strain of Azotobacter gave higher yield than obtained by the use of Rhizobium as inoculant. In the case ofVigna radiata even a strain of Azotobacter isolated from the rhizosphere of berseem gave similar yields as Rhizobium. In the case ofPisum sativum association of Rhizobium with a strain ofAzotobacter chroococcum isolated from the rhizosphere of pea gave numerically higher yield than Rhizobium alone. It may be possible that statistically higher yield may be obtained when a suitable strain of Azotobacter is used after screening a large number of strains of Azotobacter from the rhizosphere of pea.

Effect of salt‐tolerant plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria on wheat plants and soil health in a saline environment

TL;DR: Salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (ST-PGPR) significantly influence the growth and yield of wheat crops in saline soil and soil health in treated pot soil over controls.

Characterization of multifaceted Bacillus sp. RM-2 for its use as plant growth promoting bioinoculant for crops grown in semi arid deserts

TL;DR: The rhizobacterial isolate RM-2 was found to have many beneficial attributes such as P solubilization, ACC deaminase activity, antifungal activity and ammonia and indole acetic acid production.

Field response of legumes to inoculation with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria

TL;DR: None of the PGPR isolates either singly or in coinoculation with R. leguminosarum could significantly influence the yield of the lentil crop.

Response of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to combined inoculation with Rhizobium, phosphobacteria and mycorrhizal organisms

TL;DR: The results suggest that G. fasciculatum and phosphobacterium can greatly assist symbiotic nitrogen fixation as well as phosphate uptake by chickpea particularly when they are grown in soils containing insoluble phosphate.

Interaction of yeasts and some nitrogen fixing bacteria on nodulation of legumes

TL;DR: Combined inoculation of Rhizobium trifolii with Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other yeasts generally enhanced the number of nodules, length of plants and dry weight of Egyptian clover seedlings grown on agar slopes.

Notes on the biology of azotobacter

TL;DR: Forty strains of A. chroococcum from Danish soils showed a rather uniform power of nitrogen fixation in mannitol solution where the mean gain of nitrogen after 12 days corresponded to 17.1 mg./g.

Production of Slime Substance in Mixed Cultures of Rhodopseudomonas capsulatus and Azotobacter vinelandii

TL;DR: A symbiotic relationship exists between Rhodopseudomonas capsulatus (photosynthetic bacteria) and Azotobacter vinelandii and when they were mixed, the combination fixed three times more molecular nitrogen than did either pure culture.
