This study evaluates the impact of various liquid biofertilizer seed treatments, including single and combined applications of Azospirillum, KSB (Potassium Solubilizing Bacteria), PSB (Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria), Pseudomonas, and Thiram on wheat growth parameters and phenological stages. Field emergence, plant establishment, chlorophyll content, leaf area index (LAI), spike emergence, heading, plant height, and crop maturity days were assessed. Results reveal significant improvements in emergence, growth, and accelerated phenology with biofertilizer treatments, especially combinations of Azospirillum with KSB and PSB, compared to the control and Thiram-treated seeds. Combined biofertilizer application yielded the highest emergence (93.33%), leaf area (5.16), and shortest crop maturity duration (118.83 days). These findings indicate that strategic biofertilizer co-inoculations promote early establishment, robust growth, and enable faster crop maturity in wheat.
