abstract plants are exposed to stressful environmental conditions in the process of growth and development. one of the most important stresses is the salt stress which can limit the plant’s growth and yield. plants symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in salt conditions can affect the plant’s yield as well as growth parameters. the plant’s growth in salt stressful conditions might be red...

plant establishment is the most critical stage in biological renovation of rangelands. the processes which normally fails, due to the harsh conditions in the arid and semiarid environments. new technologies may be used to overcome this problem. the purpose of the present study was to investigate the possibility of enhancing seedling establishment and growth rate of alfalfa (medicago sativa l.) ...

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 ...

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 occurrence of mycorrhiza in 40 selected medicinal plants was studied. The percentage of mycorrhizal colonization in each of the plant was calculated. The colonization was found to be very less in four plants and very high in six plants. All others showed a moderate level of colonization. The present work suggests the use of mycorrhiza as a biofertilizer to enhance the growth and yield of me...

The impact of microbiological commercial products (PHC Biopak, Rhizatech and ECO-T) on the occurrence of mycorrhizae and Fusarium in the rhizosphere of tissue culture banana (Gros Mitchel cv.) was assessed. Tissue cultured banana plantlets were inoculated with PHC Biopak (Bacillus), Rhizatech (mycorrhiza) and ECO-T (T. harzianum) under greenhouse conditions using a completely randomized design ...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate different compost mixtures as peat substitutes, and the effect of Trichoderma and mycorrhiza fungi application on transplants quality. Seeds of commercial lettuce (Lactim sativa L.) and cabbage (Brassica oleracea), a nonmycotrophic plant were sown in 'Speedling' trays. Plant growth response was determined in four weeks old seedlings (commercial transpl...

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 ...

introduction cultivated sunflower is one of the largest oilseed crops in the world. sunflower seed is the third largest source of vegetable oil worldwide, following soybean and canola. nitrogen is one of the most important elements for crops to achieve optimum yields and quality. phosphorus (p), next to nitrogen, is often the most limiting nutrient for crop and forage production. phosphorus ava...
