SUMMARYSoya bean, mung bean, Bengal gram and lentil grown in nitrogenless sand culture and sprayed with suspensions of different strains ofRhizobiumshowed increases in dry weight, chlorophyll and N-content. In a few cases the performance ofRhizobiumapplied to the phyllosphere was almost as good as a seed inoculation treatment. The beneficial effect of sprayingRhizobiumstrains was independent of the specificity of cross-inoculation groups. Nitrogenase activity as indicated by acetylene reduction by theRhizooium-leafassociation varied between 460 and 723 nmol/g leaf/h.
