17 th International Congress on Nitrogen Fixation Fremantle, Western Australia 27 November – 1 December 2011 Session Details: Wednesday 30 November 2011 Concurrent Session 14 – Cyanobacteria & other organisms 1600 - 1740 Authors: Zulkifli Hj. Shamsuddin, Tan Kee Zuan and Puteri Aminatulhawa Megat Amaddin Department of Land Management, Faculty of Agriculture, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia Presentation Title: Development and application of liquid biofertilizer inoculum for non-legume and vegetable soybean intercrop Presentation Time: 1700 – 1720 Solid substrate inoculant is more widely used than liquid inoculant in legume and non-legume cultivation. It is more pronounced in developing countries. In Malaysia, the application of liquid inoculant with a consequential reduction in chemical fertilizer consumption could be more beneficial due to the hilly terrain, reduction in transport and fertilizer cost, and minimal hazardous effect on the environment. Locally used liquid inoculant technology is now emerging using various organic sources and stimulant in the culture medium to prolong shelflife and effectiveness of the bacterial inoculum. An organic fertilizer-based amendment has been used to sustain the shelf-life of a Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria ( PGPR ) for more than nine months. This locally isolated non-pathogenic PGPR from the roots of oil palm has N2 fixing and PO4 -- solubilizing properties besides producing phytohormones which enhance root development and increase water and nutrient uptake ( Shamsuddin et al., 2009 ). The PGPR is protected from any adverse soil environmental conditions due to its endophytic habitat in the plant roots. Inoculated plants showed increased shoot and root growth ( rice, oil palm, banana )( Kok-Ang et al., 2010 ), are drought and disease tolerant ( Fusarium oxysporum cubense on banana ) and high yielding but with 65% less fertilizer-N input ( banana, sweet potato )( Mia et al., 2010 ). Inoculated herbal plant, Safed Musli ( Chlorophytum borivilianum) have also shown increased number of tuber and content of its bioactive compound, saponin. This liquid inoculant will be commercially prepared in concentrated form to reduce bulk and storage space relative to solid inoculum and used in the field at 100 fold dilution while reducing transport and labor cost in the field application. The inoculum can be used by mixing it with the seeds prior to planting and sprayed around the base of non- leguminous plant or in the interrow of the young rice seedling and vegetable soybean crop after four weeks of growth. These beneficial effects of the environmental friendly liquid biofertilizer can minimize the use of inorganic fertilizer in sustainable crop production system. 90 2011

Recently, several reports have stated that some non-symbiotic bacteria occupy legume nodules endophyticly, although the function of these bacteria in the nodules has not been understood. We have isolated non-symbiotic bacteria from root nodules of soybean (cv: Hatayutaka) grown in a continuously cultivated field. Fast-growing bacterial strains were isolated from surface-sterilized nodules on YMA medium as non-symbiotic endophytic bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis based on the partial sequence of 16S rDNA gene demonstrated that most of these isolates were close to the genera Rhizobium/Agrobacterium, Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Enterobacter, and Pseudomonas. The percentage of nodules that coexisted with symbiotic Bradyrhizobium strains and nonsymbiotic bacteria was very low (
