Research ArticleOpen accessPhosphorus Availability Modulates Bradyrhizobium japonicum’s Impact on Soil Micribial Biomass and Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) Yield in Lubumbashi Tropical SoilsBen Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi et al.Tropical soils in sub-Saharan Africa exhibit low fertility, high acidity, and limited Phosphorus (P) availability, a key nutrient for agricultural productivity and the sustainability of cropping systems. This deficiency, exacerbated by the strong fixation of P in acidic soils, not only limits plant growth but also the efficiency of the nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and Bradyrhizobium … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 13 May 2026 · 1,980 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEffects of Bradyrhizobium Japonicum on Nitrogen Concentration in Soybean Leaves and Seeds Cultivated on Acidic SoilsBen Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi, Fabien Kitengie Kitengie, Jonas Lwamuguma Bagaluza et al.The legume-rhizobium symbiosis plays an important role in Nitrogen (N) uptake by plants, more particularly in the humid tropical region where soils are deeply weathered and have poor electrochemical properties. However, the influence of Bradyrhizobium on N allocation in soybean organs is not clearly understood. Here, we assessed the effect of Bradyrhizobium japonicum on the N concentration of soybean leaves … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2022 · 7,663 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEffects of Bradyrhizobium japonicum on Some Chemical Properties of Ferralsols under Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) CultivationBen Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi, Laurent Kidinda Kidinda, Germain Nyembo Kasendue et al.This study was conducted on acidic soils in two different agro-ecological zones in order to evaluate the influence of Bradyrhizobium japonicum on soil chemical properties in the Upper-Katanga (DR Congo). A split plot design with three replicates was installed in two sites. The main plots included three strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum plus the untreated control and four soybean varieties in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 17 Oct 2019 · 7,618 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessCorrelations between Growth and Yield Parameters of Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) under the Influence of Bradyrhizobium japonicum in Kipushi (The Democratic Republic of Congo)Ben Tshibuyi Kasu-Bandi, Laurent Kidinda Kidinda, Germain Nyembo Kasendue et al.This study aimed to evaluate the correlations between different agronomic parameters and their contribution to soybean performance under Bradyrhizobium japonicum influence. The experiment was carried out at Kanyameshi (Kipushi), following a Split Plot design, with three strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum (GraphExTM, Bradyrhizobium sp and Sojapak ® 50) and four soybean varieties (TGX 1740-7F: V1, PAN 1867: V2, TGX 1880-3E: V3 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 17 Aug 2019 · 8,212 accessesView PDF Cite
