Abstract

This study was conducted during Rabi 2017-18 under net house condition, to evaluate the synergistic effects of vermicompost and beneficial microbes on pea plants. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design with three replication and fifteen treatments. The result indicated that among all treatment, a treatment V4 was found to be best in terms of all growth parameters and plant defense-related compounds. The treatment combination of M1V3 has given best results followed by treatment M2V2. The results from this experiment demonstrated the strong synergistic effects between vermicompost and two microbes, as they improved the soil nutrients status by supporting growth and development of plants by producing growth hormones and also protected the plants from diseases by enhancing the production of defense - related compounds.

Pea growth parameters vermicompost Trichoderma harzianum Pseudomonas fluorescens defense-related compounds.
