Abstract

The study evaluated the initial growth of Cowpea plants inoculated with strains BR’s 3262, 3267 and Azospirillum brasilense in soil representative of the Sub-middle São Francisco Valley. It was carried out in a greenhouse with 45% shading, at the State University of Bahia using plastic pots with a capacity of 5kg. Forty-five sampling units were distributed into 9 treatments (T1: absolute control; T2: nitrogen control; T3: BR3262 inoculation; T4: BR3267 inoculation; T5: A.brasilense inoculation; T6: BR3262 + A.brasilense; T7: BR3267 + A.brasilense; T8: BR3262 + A.brasilense + 10% N; T9: BR3267 + A.brasilense + 10% N) with five replications, evaluating parameters to promote length growth and fresh and dry shoot masses. and physiological roots and SPAD index and Nitrate Reductase enzyme activity. The collected data were grouped using the Scott-Knott probability 5 test. Co-inoculation showed positive results on plant growth, indicating the potential of microorganisms in agriculture. The combination of strains BR3262 and A.brasilense stood out as promising for the cultivation of Cowpea in the Bahian Semiarid region. The study demonstrates the viability of these microorganisms as an alternative for increasing agricultural productivity.
