Summary

Pelleting inoculated seed of Vigna sinensis, Glycine wightii cv. Clarence, Lupinus albus, Desmodium uncinatum cv. Silverleaf and Glycine max with neutral rock phosphate rather than lime did not improve the survival of their non-acid producing rhizobia. The rhizobia survived equally well when applied in a 15% w/v gum arabic slurry and not pelleted. re]19730706
