Sun Yanxin,Yao Jun,Xing Lijun,Zhang Youshan(Institute of Plant Nutrition & Resources,Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forest Sciences,Beijing 100081).A Bacillus mucilaginosus RGBc13 was incubated together with either a Pseudomonas sp.RGP11,a B.megaterinm RGPi or an Azotobacter chrococcus RGN21.It was found that RGBc13 had a strong ability to release K from glass powder and was not significantly affected by other bacteria although its growth was restrained.With the existence of RGN21,RGBc13 showed a stronger capacity to dissolve K from glass powder.RGBc13 promoted RGP11 growth,but restrained RGN21.RGPi growth was not affected by RGBc13.
