Efeito do uso de bactérias multifuncionais na cultura do milho (Zea mays L.).

Abstract

Considering the relevance of multifunctional bacteria in agriculture, together with their important role in promoting plant growth and suppressing diseases, this work was carried out with the objective of evaluating the agronomic performance of corn, due to the inoculation of seeds with Bacilus subtilis , Serratia sp. and Serratia marcescens. The objective of this work was to verify the influence of these rhizobacteria on corn production components. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 4 replications. The treatments were represented by T1 (control), T2 (Bacillus subtilis), T3 (Serratia sp.) and T4 (Serratia marcescens). The results demonstrated that there was an increase in corn grain productivity with the inoculation of seeds with S. marcescens.
