Abstract
The current study emphases on assessing the efficiency of different biofertilizers, namely Phosphobacteria, Azospirillum, Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhiza (VAM) and Potash Mobilizing Bacteria (PMB), concerning their impact on seeds germination, growth parameters and biochemical constituents of Maize (Zea mays L). The experimentation with seed inoculations of different biofertilizers to assess their influence on the germination, various growth parameters and biochemical constituents of maize. A germination study was conducted using maize seeds treated with a variety of biofertilizers. The investigation focused on multiple aspects, including germination percentage, vigor index, seedling growth, fresh and dry weights of the seedlings. The growth parameters and pigments of the maize plants at different intervals (15, 30, and 45 Days after sowing, or DAS), with comparisons made to a control group. The findings indicated that all the examined growth parameters and pigments exhibited gradual improvements with the application of various organic biofertilizers. Based on the data, among these biofertilizers, Azospirillum stood out as the most effective, leading to significant enhancements in maize seedling growth, morphological parameters, and pigment levels when compared to both other biofertilizers and the untreated control group.
