Popis: To determine whether the use of soil yeasts as inoculum would intervene in improving bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) growth and its symbiotic parameters, various experiments have been carried out. The effect of inoculation by soil yeasts Meyerozyma guilliermondii GP MT258984, Debaryomyces hansenii DFA MT259039, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa LIA MT259358, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa LC MT252049, along with the strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae in their cell or metabolite forms, was investigated in non-sterile (sand) and agricultural substrates (soil), in association or not with mycorrhizal fungi. The results showed that the yeast could have a beneficial effect on the bean biomass directly without increasing its nodulation and mycorrhization, or indirectly by improving those symbiotic parameters. They also revealed a very important ecological aspect and the possibility of inoculating with indigenous soil yeasts to increase the number of fertilising microorganisms, such as mycorrhizae and rhizobia, without resorting to introducing exogenous strains.
