Figures & data
Table 1. Three-way ANOVA of measured variables.
![Figure 1. Plant P content of maize (Z. mays L.) under three bacterial inoculation treatments with (+) and without (−) phytin or KH2PO4 addition. –PA, no inoculation with PA; I+PA, inoculation with PA at seedling initiation; 2w+PA, inoculation with PA two weeks after seedling emergence. Different lowercase letters indicate a significant difference (Tukey's HSD, P < 0.05) in P content among the three inoculation forms. Bars represent means + SEs (n = 4).](/cms/asset/f962c86c-6953-4588-a379-72513473edb0/tjpi_a_977831_f0001_b.jpg)
Table 2. Increase in plant P content and phytin P use efficiency in plants grown in phytin amended soil with additional KH2PO4 or not.

MBP in the rhizosphere soil under three bacterial inoculation treatments with (+) and without (−) phytin or KH2PO4 addition. –PA, no inoculation with PA; I+PA, inoculation with PA at seedling initiation; 2w+PA, inoculation with PA two weeks after seedling emergence.
