Abstract:

In order to better utilize microbial agents to improve the growth status and fruit quality of Cucumis sativus L., the cucumber variety Chunxiaquansheng was used as the experimental material. Five microbial agents, namely fluorescein, Bacillus subtilis, Judexing microbial agent, Caogen 8, and Shidifu, were used for substrate mixing and seedling cultivation, as well as root irrigation after planting, to explore their effects on the growth and fruit quality of Cucumis sativus L.The results showed that the root vitality, growth index, yield, and fruit quality of Cucumis sativus L. seedlings were most significantly improved under the treatment of Caogen 8 agent, which is suitable for cucumber production to improve economic benefits.

Key words: microbial agent, Cucumis sativus L., growth index, fruit quality
