Soybean Nodulation and N2 - Fixation as Influenced by Cow Dung, Wood Ash and Rhizobial Inoculation in Tropical Acid Soils (typic Dystrudept )

Soretire A.A.*, Olayinka A.

The effects of cow dung and wood ash applications with and without rhizobial inoculation on modulation, and N2-fixation by soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) were investigated in tropical acid dystrudepts under greenhouse and field conditions. The field experiments were located at Epe and Ijebu-waterside (Ibiade) of Lagos and Ogun States, southwest...

Response of Soybean (glycine Max L. ) to Cow Dung and Wood Ash Application in Tropical Acid Soils of South - Western Nigeria

Soretire A.A.*, Olayinka A.

The study examined the effect of cow dung (beef cattle manure) and wood ash on the growth and yield of soybean in two acid soils (Typic dystrudepts) of south-western Nigeria. The experiment was conducted under field conditions at two different locations, namely, Epe and Ibiade (Ijebu- waterside) of Lagos and Ogun States, Nigeria, respectively. It w...

Effect of Heavy Metal Contamination on Microbial Population, Organic Carbon and Nitrogen Mineralization in Soil Planted to Legumes

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of heavy metal contamination on the microbial population, organic carbon and nitrogen mineralization in the soil planted to legumes. Two heavy metals (Zinc and lead) were used at 150 mg kg -1 and 200 mg kg-1 concentrations respectively. Four legumes (Mucuna, Cowpea, Soyabean and Centrosema) were...
