The effect of Streptomyces griseoflavus P4 on growth of various crops was studied and the effects of co-inoculation on plant growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixation by soybean was investigated. Pot experiments were conducted in an environmentally controlled room. Nitrogen fixation was evaluated based on acetylene reduction activity (ARA). Significant increases in soybean and maize growth performance were observed after inoculation with S. griseoflavus P4, although some growth parameters were not significant in some crops. S. griseoflavus P4 was co-inoculated with high nitrogen-fixing strains. Co-inoculation of Bradyrhizobium elkanii AHY3-1 with P4 into the Yezin-6 (non-Rj) soybean cultivar resulted in significantly increased root dry weight. Nitrogenase activity also increased due to co-inoculation of B. elkanii AHY3-...

The genome sequences of these strains will be useful to identify a causal gene for this incompatibility.
