Abstract

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important crops in the world. Nitrogen (N) is considered one of the nutrients most required by maize crop, being related to its production, however, subject to soil losses due to leaching, surface runoff and volatilization, causing environmental damages. The application of plant growth promoting bacteria (BPCPs) to increase agricultural production is one of the most important alternatives for relying less on chemical fertilizers. BPCPs stimulate biological nitrogen fixation (BNF). Some species of the genus Azospirillum have this capacity in addition to producing growth promoting hormones favoring the cultivation of maize and other Poace.
