Abstract
The aim of this study was to know the response of
Rhizobium bacteria on the leaf area, chlorophyll
content a and b, N content in leaf of Jackbean
(Canavalia ensiformis L.). This research is an
experimental designed which is used Completely
Randomize Design (CRD). The treatment in this
experiment was giving the Rhizobium bacteria
dosage 0, 10, 20, and 30 ml/plant, it was inoculated
on planting hole of Jackbean plant. Data were
analyzed by ANOVA, with Duncan test at level 5
%. The results of this research showed that the
treatment of the Rhizobium bacteria dosage gave a
significant difference (p<0.05) for leaf area and
chlorophyll content a of Jackbean plant. The
highest leaf area (31,673,56 cm2/plant) and
chlorophyll content a (10,690,66 mg/g) gave by
Rhizobium bacteria dosage 20 ml/plant, but the best
N content (0,89%) gave by Rhizobium bacteria
dose 10 ml/plan in lea of Jackbean plant.
Key words : Canavalia ensiformis L., Rhizobium,
leaf, chlorophyll content a and b, nitrogen

2 Methodology
The research was conducted in two places is the
Laboratory of Microbiology, Department of
Biology, Faculty of Science and Technology,
Airlangga University Surabaya and Agricultural
Land in Surabaya. The research start from
September 2010 until February 2011. Jackbean
plant from the Laboratory of Food Biotechnology,
Center for Genetic Resources of Agricultural
Bogor. Isolate bacteria Rhizobium sp. from the
Microbiology Laboratory, Department of Biology,
Faculty of Science and Technology University
Press. This research is experimental using
Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 5
replications per treatment. The treatment in this
study were Rhizobium bacteria at doses of 0, 10,
20, and 30 mL / plants and plants inoculated at the
hole the Jackbean plant. Plants allowed to grow
until the age of four months.The parameters
observed were leaf area growth, chlorophyll
content, leaf N content. The analysis of leaf
chlorophyll content using a spectrophotometer
(Winstermans and Mots, 1965 at Purnobasuki,
2010).
