dc.description A glasshouse study was undertaken to investigate the effects of the copper fungicide Kocide 101 and its residues in soil on the growth. nodulation and nitrogen fixation of beans (Phaseolus iulgaris, L.). The soil used was a sandy clay loam classified as Typic Rhodustalf. The bean variety SUA 90 was used as test crop. The bean rhizobia strains CIA T 899, PV1 and a local isolate were used. Kocide 101 applied at the recommended rate (equivalent to 1.7 mg kg-I soil) had no significant negative eff ects on the growth. nodulation or nitrogen fixation of bean plants. Higher levels of Kocide 101 significantly (P < 0.05) reduced plant growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixation.The bean plants inoculated with the "local isolate" rhizobia had the highest dry matter weights. nodule numbers and nodule dry weights,and also had more N fixation. They were followed by those inoculated with the PV1 strain and. lastly, those inoculated with CIA T 899.The growth and nodulation of bean plants were still curtailed by the Kocide 101 residues four months after the fungicide was first applied to the soil. Therefore, occurrence of high levels of Kocide 101 in soils can have long-term effects on the performance of the bean-rhizobia symbiosis.
