In this study, Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) isolated from Namık
Kemal University Agricultural Faculty Field Crops Department experimental
area, to determine effects of germination rate (%) and mean germination time
(day) on common vetch (Vicia sativa L.), narbon vetch (Vicia narbonensis L.),
white lupine (Lupinus albus L.) and vetchling (Lathyrus sativus L.) seeds. Their
properties of solubitisation to phosphate by inoculating into NBRIP medium were
also examined. Isolate of solubitisation to phosphate was selected and prepared
by adjusting the concentration at 108 cfu/ml for application of seeds. The
experiment was arrenged in a rondomized plot design with three replications.
Treated seeds were germinated at 25 ± 1°C for 10 days in a growth chamber. A
seed was considered to be germinated when the radicle protruded 1mm and
germinated seeds were counted daily. The results showed that, seed treatment
increases germination rate % 5 and reduces mean germination time % 5-8 on all
species.

Keywords: seed treatment, PGPR, germination, forage legume crops
