Conteúdo: | Inoculating corn with diazotrophic bacteria as growth promoters has been demonstrated to be an efficient agricultural practice in Brazil, mainly due to the root stimulation they provide to plants. This study investigates the corn (Zea mays L.) root architecture in a greenhouse assay where A. baldaniorum Sp245 and H. seropedicae ZAE94 strains were inoculated and evaluated for 22 days under two N levels: 0.6 and 6 mmol L-1 of N. Short-term bioassays were conducted to assess the plant’s response to the addition of indole-acetic acid, two bacterial populations, and two corn genotypes, utilizing image capture software WinRhizo Pro. The growth and distribution of tips, crossing, and length of fine roots were determined to be the most sensitive aspects to inoculation and indole-acetic acid induction. These responses were influenced by the genotype and the number of bacterial cells present. Biomass accumulation analyses quantified these modifications after a 22-day period. Additionally, the growth response was found to be more significant when applying the Hs-ZAE94 strain to plants fertilized with a higher dose of nitrogen (6.0 mmol L-1), and this response was positively correlated with bioassay data. Selected strains used as an inoculant can improve root architecture and, consequently, the N use efficiency.
