Abstract

A composition of matter comprising: a combination of a phytate and a plurality of microorganisms comprising a Trichoderma virens fungus, a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens bacterium, and one or a plurality of mycorrhizae fungi that is placed in the vicinity of a plant root in a manner that allows the microorganisms in the composition of matter to colonize said plant root; and a method for increasing plant yield comprising: placing a combination of a phytate and a plurality of microorganisms comprising a Trichoderma virens fungus, a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens bacterium, and one or a plurality of mycorrhizae fungi in the vicinity of a plant root in a manner that allows the microorganisms in the composition of matter to colonize said plant root.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A composition, comprising:
 a  Trichoderma virens  component;   a  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprising  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  TJ-1000 , Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  1BE and/or  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  FZB24;   a mycorrhizal fungus or mycorrhizal fungi component; and   a phytate or phytic acid component.   
     
     
         2 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises  Trichoderma virens  G1-3. 
     
     
         3 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 1×10 11  to about 1×10 7  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-3. 
     
     
         4 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 4.2×10 9  to about 6.75×10 8  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-3. 
     
     
         5 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 5×10 8  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-3. 
     
     
         6 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises  Trichoderma virens  G1-21. 
     
     
         7 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 1×10 11  to about 1×10 7  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-21. 
     
     
         8 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 4.2×10 9  to about 6.75×10 8  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-21. 
     
     
         9 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Trichoderma virens  component comprises about 5×10 8  colony forming units per gram of  Trichoderma virens  G1-3. 
     
     
         10 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  TJ1000. 
     
     
         11 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 5×10 11  to about 1×10 7  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  TJ1000. 
     
     
         12 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 1.35×10 10  to about 8.40×10 10  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  TJ1000. 
     
     
         13 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  1BE. 
     
     
         14 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 5×10 11  to about 1×10 7  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  1BE. 
     
     
         15 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 1.35×10 10  to about 8.40×10 10  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  1BE. 
     
     
         16 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  FZB24. 
     
     
         17 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 5×10 11  to about 1×10 7  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  FZB24. 
     
     
         18 . The composition of  claim 1 , wherein said  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  component comprises about 1.35×10 10  to about 8.40×10 10  colony forming units per gram of  Bacillus amyloliquefaciens  FZB24. 
     
     
         19 . A method, comprising applying the composition of  claim 1  to a soil.
