Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici causes take-all disease, the most important root disease of cereal plants. Cereal plants are able to form a symbiotic association with soil-borne arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi which can provide bioprotection against soil-borne fungal pathogens. However, the bioprotective effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi against soil-borne fungal pathogens might vary. In...

The response of pea (Pisum sativum cv. Avola) to arbuscular micorrizal fungi (AM) species Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices and Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. Viciae, strain D293 regarding growth, nodulation and nitrogen fixing activity was studied. Pea plants (Pisum sativum cv. Avola) were grown in a glasshouse until flowering stage (35 days) in 4 kg plastic pots using leached cinnamonic for...

This experiment aims at establishing the ability of the endomycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices to suppress the plant pathogen Pythium ultimum in cherry tomato. A study published in Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology in 1994 showed that Glomus intraradices suppresses Pythium ultimum in Tagetes patula (french marigold) (St-Arnaud, Fortin, Caron, & Hamel, 1994). Pythium ultimum and other Pyth...

The study evaluated the response of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L) to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM) species Glomus intraradices and Sinorhizobium meliloti, strain 1021 regarding the dry biomass accumulation, mycorrhizal fungi colonization, nodulation and nitrogen fixation activity. Alfalfa plants were grown in a glasshouse until the flowering stage (58 days), in 4 kg plastic pots using leached...

In agricultural production, carbendazim and other pesticides are used to prevent soybean root rot. However, degrades slowly affects a series of biochemical processes such as soil biological nitrogen fixation nutrient activation in the natural environment. This study mainly investigated effects Rhizophagus intraradices, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, on biomass, incidence rot, total number bacteri...

in a greenhouse experiment, the effects of glomus intraradices and indigenous mycorrhizal isolates from soils under plow and no-till treatments on the uptake of 32p placed at 1, 2.5 and 4 cm from the roots of white clover (trifolium repens) in 23, 37 or 46 days after planting were compared.spores of the indigenous fungi were mostly a mixture of glomus mossea, g. clarum, g. caledonium and g....
