The Effect of Mycorrhizal Fungi and Organic Fertilizers on Quantitative and Qualitative Traits of Two Important Satureja Species

The quantitative yield and essential oil percentage composition of two important savory species in response to various fertilizers were explored a field experiment as factorial study based on randomized complete block design with three replications north Lorestan, Iran, 2017–2019. first factor was assigned mycorrhizal fungi (Funneliformis mosseae, Rhizophagus irregularis, Glomus fasciculatum), phosphate biofertilizer (Baravar-2), fish manure (800 kg/ha), cattle (20 t/ha), vermicompost (5 control (no fertilization); the second species, including Satureja khuzestanica S. rechingeri. results combined analysis variance for third years showed that simple effects significant all recorded traits, except some constituents oil. Among fungi, R. irregularis outperformed rechingeri content yield. interaction between year traits. (5.1%) 18% higher than (4.3%) 41% (3.6%). According results, foliar application vermin compost at rate 5 t/ha can contribute sustainable production both improving their growth
