ارزیابی عملکرد، اجزاء عملکرد و شاخص‌های سودمندی کشت مخلوط لوبیا (phaseolus vulgaris) () و ذرت (zea mays) تحت تلقیح با باکتری rhizobium phaseoli

کشت مخلوط، به‌عنوان روشی موثر برای استفاده از منابع، سبب افزایش عملکرد و پایداری محصول در مقایسه با کشت خالص می‌شود. مطالعه حاضر به‌صورت کرت‌های خرد شده در قالب طرح پایه بلوک‌های کامل تصادفی با سه تکرار انجام شد. فاکتور اصلی در دو سطح (تلقیح و عدم تلقیح با باکتری) و فاکتور فرعی، نسبت کشت مخلوط ذرت (zea mays)- لوبیا (phaseolus vulgaris) (کشت خالص ذرت و لوبیا، نسبت‌های 25 درصد لوبیا + 75 درصد ذرت، 50 درصد لوبیا + 50 درصد ذرت و 25 درصد ذرت + 75 درصد لوبیا) بود. بیشترین نسبت برابری زمین (ler) و ضریب ازدحام نسبی (rcc) در نسبت 25 درصد ذرت + 75 درصد لوبیا در شرایط تلقیح با باکتری به‎دست آمد، که نشانگر این است که تلقیح با باکتری، سبب افزایش عملکرد هر دو گونه گیاهی در مقایسه با شرایط عدم تلقیح شد. در شرایط تلقیح با باکتری، شاخص نسبت رقابت (cr) در تمام نسبت‌های کشت مخلوط، برای لوبیا بالاتر از یک و برای ذرت کمتر از یک بود. کمتر بودن این شاخص برای ذرت نسبت به لوبیا نشان می‌دهد که در این شرایط، ذرت در کشت مخلوط، توانایی رقابت کمتری نسبت به لوبیا داشت. در شرایط تلقیح با باکتری، شاخص قابلیت تهاجم برای لوبیا مثبت بود. مجموع ارزش نسبی (rvt) برای دو گونه گیاهی، در کلیه نسبت‌های کشت مخلوط، بالاتر از یک بود که نشان‌دهنده سودمندی اقتصادی کشت مخلوط نسبت به کشت خالص دو گونه بود. در مجموع، این نتایج نشان داد که کشت مخلوط لوبیا و ذرت تحت تلقیح با باکتری ریزوبیوم، می‌تواند راهکاری مناسب برای دسترسی به عملکرد مطلوب باشد.

evaluation of yield, yield component and usefulness indices of bean (phaseolus vulgaris) and maize (zea mays) intercropping under inoculation with rhizobium phaseoli

introductionintercropping involves cultivating two or more crops together in the same field within a single cropping year. one common method to supply nitrogen to plants is through the use of chemical fertilizers containing nitrogen. however, excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers conflicts with the principles of sustainable agriculture. an alternative approach is to utilize microorganisms capable of nitrogen fixation, such as rhizobial bacteria and non-symbiotic bacteria (azospirillum, herbaspirillum, azotobacter, etc.). the purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of intercropping of guilan bean (phaseolus vulgaris) landrace and maize (zea mays) under inoculation with rhizobium phaseoli.materials and methodsthe present study was conducted in talesh, guilan province as split plots based on the randomized complete block design with three replications. main factor was use of bacteria at two levels (inoculation and non-inoculation) and the split factor was the ratio of maize-bean intercropping in five levels (monoculture of maize and bean, 25% bean + 75% maize, 50% bean + 50% maize and 75% bean + 25% maize). maize and bean seeds were planted simultaneously on may 22, 2022. beans were harvested in late of august and maize was harvested in mid-september. each gram of inoculant contained 107 bacterial cells. to inoculate with bacteria, the seeds were first coated with arabic gum and then 10 grams of inoculant was added per one kilogram of seeds. planting was done after half an hour and drying the inoculated seeds in the shade. after measuring seed yield at harvest, various indices were used to evaluate the effectiveness of intercropping, including the land equivalence ratio (ler), relative crowding coefficient (rcc), competition ratio (cr), aggressivity, and relative value total (rvt). the analysis involved variance assessment, mean comparisons, and calculations of intercropping usefulness indices, all performed using r software.results and discussionin bean, the effect of inoculation were significant on plant height, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, pod length, hundred seed weight, biological yield, seed yield, harvest index and the effect of intercropping were significant on plant height, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, biological yield, seed yield and harvest index and the interaction effects of two factor were significant on plant height, biological yield and seed yield. in maize, the effect of inoculation were significant on plant height, ear length and grain yield. the effect of intercropping were significant on plant height, ear length, number of grains in ear, grain yield, biological yield and harvest index and interaction effects of two factor were significant on ear length and hundred grain weightunder both inoculated and non-inoculated conditions, the land equivalence ratio (ler) exceeded 1 across all intercropping ratios, demonstrating the superiority of intercropping over monoculture in these systems. the highest ler and relative crowding coefficient (rcc) were observed in the planting ratio of 75% bean + 25% maize under inoculated conditions, indicating that inoculation enhanced the yield of both species compared to non-inoculated conditions. in the inoculated condition, the competition ratio (cr) was greater than 1 for beans and less than 1 for maize across all intercropping ratios.
