Abstract

Inoculation of the Japonica rice, Giza 171, with blue-green algae along with 36 kg N/ha or complete N fertilization by 108 kg N/ha were tested along with blast-controlling fungicides: Kitazin-17, Fuji-one and Beam. The algal inoculum, which containedAnabaena cylindrica, Anabaena oryzae, Nostoc muscorum and Tolypothrix tenuis, was applled as 100 kg soil-based inoculum (90% moisture)/ha 5 days after transplanting. Plant growth, yield, N content and fertilizer-N-use efficiency were increased and the incidence and severity of leaf and neck intection withPyricularia oryzae were decreased by treatment with the fungicides applied with the algae along with 36 kg N/ha inslead of 108 kg N/ha without algae.
