    Abstract:
    The present study was designed with the objective of improving growth and nodulation of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merill] with co-inoculation of native Bradyrhizobium sp. (LSBR-3) (KF906140) and non-rhizobial nodule endophytic diazotroph Leclercia adecarboxylata (LSE-1) (KX925974) with multifunctional plant growth promoting (PGP) traits in cereal based cropping system (Rice-Wheat). A total of 40 endophytic bacteria from cultivated and wild sp. of soybean were screened for multifarious PGP traits and pathogenicity test. Based on PGP traits, antagonistic activities and bio-safety test; L. adecarboxylata (LSE-1) was identified with 16 S rRNA gene sequencing along with the presence of nifH (nitrogen fixation) and ipdc (IAA production) genes. Dual inoculant LSE-1 and LSBR-3 increased indole acetic acid (IAA), P & Zn-solubilization, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACCD) activity, siderophore, biofilm formation and exo-polysaccharides in contrast to single inoculation treatment. Further, assessment of dual inoculant LSBR-3 + LSE-1 improved growth parameters, nodulation, soil enzymes activities, nutrient accumulation and yield as compared to single as well as un-inoculated control treatment under field conditions. Single inoculant LSBR-3 improved yield by 8.84% over control. Further, enhancement of 4.15% grain yield was noticed with LSBR-3 + LSE-1 over LSBR-3 alone treatment. Application of LSBR-3 + LSE-1 gave superior B:C ratio (1.29) and additional income approximately 116 USD ha-1 in contrast to control treatment. The present results thus, is the first report of novel endophytic diazotroph L. adecarboxylata (LSE-1) as PGPR from Indian conditions particularly in Punjab region for exploiting as potential PGPR along with Bradyrhizobium sp. (LSBR-3) in soybean.
