Mitigating drought in Mungbean using rhizobium induced alteration in physiological traits

Several studies have been focused on rhizobium mediated stress tolerance in legumes as the ability of symbiotic fixation offer an opportunity to improve nitrogen status of the soil and crop productivity under stress conditions. But to upgrade the existing rhizobial strains with more promising new rhizobial isolates is the demand of hour. So this work aimed to evaluate the responses of different promising rhizobial isolates for physiological traits and to correlate these traits with seed yield under drought condition.
