Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi constitute promising biofertilizers for the deployment of a sustainable agriculture. However, evaluation benefits in field is poorly documented, notably fruit tree orchards, and concerns exclusively growth performance nutrition. Here, we evaluated persistence beneficial effects AM fungal inoculation on two jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) cultivars (Tasset Gol...

The present study investigated the acute and short-term effects of oral feeding of jujube solution on blood platelets and its morphological indices in response to circuit resistance exercise. Fourteen young male volunteer students were randomly divided into the placebo and jujube solution groups. All participants performed one circuit resistance exercise[9stations/nonstop, 30 seconds for each s...
