Abstract

 Mixed inoculation of Vicia faba L. with four different Rhizobium/Azospirillum and Rhizobium/Azotobacter combinations led to changes in total content, concentration and/or distribution of the mineral macro- and micronutrients, K, P, Ca, Mg, Fe, B, Mn, Zn and Cu, when compared with plants inoculated with Rhizobium only. The effects varied to a great extent among the Azotobacter and Azospirillum strains selected for combined inoculation.
