Abstract

In order to study the influence of inoculating two native rhizobium isolates on nodulation in Kabuli and Dessi chickpea( Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes in different soil moisture regimes, a greenhouse experiment was carried out as a completely randomized design in a factorial arrangement of treatments with three replications. Treatments included soil moisture levels, FC(Field capacity), 75%FC, 50%FC and 25%FC, variety, MCC876 and MCC180 from Dessi and Kabuli genotypes, (drought resistant and susceptible, respectively) and rhizobium inoculation, number 16 isolate, number 27 isolate and control (not inoculated). Among different moisture levels, inoculated isolates and different varieties, significant differences (p
