What stage of the rice plants is ideal for rhizosphere soil sampling?

28 May 2020 1 10K Report

I want to isolate PGPR from rice rhizosphere (flooded conditions). Not sure when to collect samples. Concentrating on acidic soils of South India.

The seeds are being sown now for the second crop. Should I sample during the seedling stage or a fully grown plant or maybe after two months of sowing?

Rajeswari Das

Normally sampling is done at 30, 45 and 60 days after transplanting including initial and final.

But if you want to isolate any PGPR after harvest or initial would be good.
