ABSTRACT-The enrichment of bedding for vermicomposting systems with organic and inorganic additives is a technique which can promote the quality of produced vermicompost. Phosphate rock and fishmeal are two available and low-cost substances which can be provided easily and inoculation of vermicompost with phosphate solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) can enhance the availability...

Application of mycorrhiza-biofertilizer and intercropping with legume crops could improve performance yield red-rice grown onraised-beds under aerobic irrigation systems, but weeds became a serious problem, which needs more frequent weeding. A Split Split-Plot (SSP) experiment was designed to examine synergistic effects rice-straw mulch application on yieldof several black rice promising-lines ...

BACKGROUND: Management of nutrients, especially nitrogen, in order to have economic production, maintain sustainable agriculture and provide food security, is considered to have an important priority. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to evaluate effect of different level of nitrogen fertilizer and vermicompost on quantitative and qualitative traits of w...

Under rainfed conditions yield potential of French bean reduced in the acid soil Arunachal Pradesh due to low fertility and metal toxicity. Therefore, current experiment was conducted ICAR, Basar, Research Farm during rabi season (October–January) 2018, 2019 2020 study effect amelioration using organic amendments combined with inorganic fertilizer on important properties. The amendment treatmen...

This research was conducted to evaluate effects of mycorrhiza fungi and nano zinc oxide on agro physiological traits of wheat under salinity stress based on factorial experiment according complete randomized block design with three replications under greenhouse condition at 2014. Treatments included salinity in three levels [no-salt (S0) or control, salinity 40 (S1) and 80 (S2) mM NaCl], two le...

speaking, do not have roots, rather they form mycorrhiza. There are seven principle types of mycorrhiza. The two most important mycorrhizas are the endomycorrhiza and ectomycorrhiza. Endomycorrhiza typically colonize herbaceous plants, shrubs, many ornamental, fruit and nut trees, vegetables and agronomic crops, and turf grasses. More than 85% of higher plants form endomycorrhizal associations....

The majority of land plants live in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi from the phylum Glomeromycota. This symbiosis improves acquisition of phosphorus (P) by the host plant in exchange for carbohydrates, especially under low-P availability. The symbiosome, constituted by root cortex cells accommodating arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal hyphae, is the site at which bi-directional exchange ...

The study was conducted at 10 – yearsold walnut orchard at Dr. Y. S. Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni-Solan(H.P.) to find out the effect of integrated nutrient management on leaf nutrient status of walnut (Juglans regia L.). There were 13 different treatment combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers. Treatments were applied on per tree basis. Among the treatments re...

in order to investigate the effects of vermicompost and chemical fertilizers on growth characteristics, yield and yield components of marshmallow (altheaeofficinalis l.), a field experiment was conducted as factorial layout based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during growing season of 2012. experimen...
