Dissolution of rock phosphate by rhizosphere microorganism isolated from Bangladesh soils [of rice, jute, Fagopyrum esculentum]
1986
Haque, M.Z.
Twenty four bacteria and two fungi isolated from the rhizosphere soil of rice, jute and dhaincha growing in four important soil tracts of Bangladesh were tested for the solubilization of rock phosphate in liquid medium. Variations were observed among the cultures, fungi being the better, in respect of rock phosphate dissolution. Almost all the cultures produced acidity in the medium. Positive relationship was found between the amount of rock phosphate solubilized and the acidity of the medium at seven days' incubation.
