To study the effects of nano-zinc oxide and seed inoculation with brady rhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on yield and some agronomic traits of soybean, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in 2013 at the research farm of the Islamic Azad University, Ardabil Branch. Treatments were foliar application of nano-zinc oxide at four levels (zero, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 gr/litr) and seed inoculation with brady rhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria at five levels (without inoculation as control, seed inoculation with brady Rhizobium japanicum, seed inoculation with brady rhizobium R. japanicum + Azosprillum lipoferum strain OF, seed inoculation with brady Rhizobium japanicum + Psedomonas putida strain 41, seed inoculation with brady Rhizobium japanicum + Azosprillum lipoferum + Psedomonas putida. The results showed that maximum of plant height, grain 100 weights, the number of nodules per plant and grain yield, total dry matter (530 gr/m2), crop growth rate (9.48 gr/m2.day) and relative growth rate (0.1 gr/gr.day) were obtained at foliar application of 0.9 gr/litr nano-zinc oxide + seed inoculation with rhizobium + Azosprillum + Psedomonas and the least of these indices were obtained at without foliar application of nano-zinc oxide + seed inoculation. It seems that using 0.9 gr/lit of nano-zinc oxide × seed inoculation with rhizobium and PGPR could increase the grain yield and some agronomic traits of soybean and can be recommended to the growers.

In order to study of nitrogen application time and seed inoculation with plant growth promotingrhizobacteria on yield, fertilizer use efficiency and grain filling rate of sunflower, a factorial experimentwas conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm ofIslamic Azad University, Ardabil branch in 2011. The first factor was time of nitrogen application inthree levels, (1/3 at 4-6 leaf stage, 1/3 at budding stage, 1/3 at flowering stage), (1/2 at 4-6 leaf stage, 1/2at budding stage), (1/4 at 4-6 leaf stage, 1/2 at budding stage, 1/4 at flowering stage) as N1, N2 and N3respectively and the second factor was seed inoculation with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in fourlevels containing (without inoculation as control, seed inoculation with Azotobacter chrocococum strain5, Psedomunas putida strain 9, Psedomunas putida strain 41). The results showed that maximum of grainweight, grain filling period, grain and biological yield, 1000 grain weight, number of grain per head, plantheight, head and stem diameter were obtained in nitrogen application as N2×seed inoculation withAzotobacter. Maximum of nitrogen use efficiency was recorded at nitrogen application as N2×seedinoculation with Azotobacter and minimum of it was obtained in nitrogen application as N1× no seedinoculation. It seems that in order to increasing of grain yield, fertilizer use efficiency and grain fillingrate, can be suggested that should be applied nitrogen application time as N2×seed inoculation withAzotobacter.

Towards Low Input Sustainable Agriculture (LISA), decreased chemical fertilizers and increased of forage yield (quality and quantity) this study was carried out in the experimental field of Boroujerd Agricultural Research Station (Lorestan province, Iran) in 2011. Two factorial experiments (RCBD) with three replications have been studied. Experimental treatments including four levels of chemical fertilizers: (nitrogen and phosphorus) F0 = N0 + P0, F1 = N25 (25k/h Urea 46 percent nitrogen) + P50 (50 k/h super phosphate triple 46 percent P2O5), F2 = N50 + P100 and F3 = N75 + P150. The biological fertilizers including: control, PGPR, native rhizobium and co-inoculation. Results showed that the location had significant effect on green yield, height, regrow rate and on CP and ADF. Parameters were higher in location two than that of location 1. The CP, DMD and height were not significant under chemical and biological treatments. The highest green yield (76.16 t/ha) was observed using and native at the highest rate of chemical fertilizers (B2F4 and B3F4). The efficiency of F2B in comparison to F3B0 treatments increased green yield (0.33 percent), Crud Protein (2.6 percent), chlorophyll content (1.9 percent), regrow rate (4.69 percent), ash (3.97 percent) and decreased CF (-0.15 percent). CP correlated (r = -0.35) and negatively correlated (r = -0.73) with ADF and CF, respectively. It seems that application of reduced chemical fertilizers integrated with biological fertilizers (especially native rhizobium) can positively affect on yield as well as forage quality and led to decrease of chemical fertilizers.
