Abstract: | Solarization of soil was found beneficial for plant growth in cowpea under field conditions. Root nodulation, infection by
mycorrhizal fungi and yield were higher in plants grown in solarized soil. These increases were to the extent of 104.7, 20.0
and 23.7 per cent respectively when compared to control treatment without solarization. |
