Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a phytopathogenic fungus that causes wilting and white rot in several species such as strawberry. The overuse of agrochemicals has caused environmental pollution plant resistance to phytopathogens. Inoculation crops with beneficial microorganisms arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM), plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), their metabolites considered an alternative agro...

Ericaceae are a group of plants with biotechnological and commercial importance. These establish symbiotic associations wide mycorrhizal fungi. National global studies have focused on two them: arbuscular endomycorrhizae ectomycorrhizae. The most recent type mycorrhiza recorded is the cavendishioid ectendomycorrhizae. one least-studied understood mycorrhizae, along monotropoid arbutoid mycorrhi...

Biological agents are critical in the management of major diseases oil palm plantations. The potential arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) and Trichoderma spp. to control basal stem rot disease was investigated this study. Three-month-old seedlings treated with AMF since beginning planting demonstrated colonization roots. With a 25 gram treatment main nursery, increased by 85.99% TBM-1 (the 1-yea...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and dark septate (DSF) are symbionts that associated with the roots of plants, including epiphytic lycophytes ferns. Paris-type mycorrhiza glomoid structures most common forms colonization in these plants. This work aimed to evaluate occurrence ferns as well diversity AMF spores recovered from substrate eleven species. Roots Asplenium gastonis, Campyloneurum a...

two ectomycorrhizal fungi, Pisolithus tinctorius (Pers.) Coker and Couch and Paxillus involutus (Batsch) Fr., was studied in vitro. Spermidine was the main polyamine in the mycelium of both fungi. Paxillus involutus also produced large amounts of the diamine putrescine, whereas Pisolithus tinctorius contained traces of the diamine cadaverine and released into the culture medium an unknown compo...

Arsenic (As) in soils causes several detrimental effects, including death. Arsenic toxicity in soybean plants (Glycine max L.) has been little studied. Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) increase the tolerance of host plants to abiotic stress, like As. We investigated the effects of AM fungi on soybean grown in As-contaminated soils. A pot experiment was carried out in a glasshouse, at random with five...

The present paper analyses the community structure of ectomycorrhiza (ECM) and arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi associated with seven different poplar clone types growing in a patch system on soil from four different former land use types, originating from spruce forest, poplar stand, grassland and cornfield. We determined the extent to which ECM and AM play a role on the studied factors (genot...
