Growth responses of Zea mays and Glycine max to colonization by mixture of combination of three species of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, two species of Glomus and a species of Scutellospora were compared. In Zea mays, plants inoculated with single species of AM fungi showed significantly higher in dry weight than non-mycorrhizal plant for all three AM fungal species. Also, growth of plants...

abstract large-scale mortality of in vitro raisedplantlets occurred during acclimatization, i.e. glasshouse hardening, and later at field transfer still has remained as a significant bottleneck in micropropagation. the usefulness potential of some arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) to minimize mortality rate of three commercial grape rootstock genotypes during glasshouse acclimatization was stu...

abstract- greenhouse experiment was conducted in factorial experiment arranged as a completely randomized design (crd) to evaluate the effect of glomus intraradices, pseudomonas fluorescence and soil drying on different forms of potassium (k) and the changes of clay minerals in a calcareous soil after maize planting. treatments consisted of arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) fungus at two levels: g0 (...

We studied the production of xyloglucanase enzymes of leguminous roots in the presence of Rhizobium and arbuscularmycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The AM fungus Glomus mosseae and Sinorhizobium meliloti GR4 for alfalfa, Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viceae Rlv 13 for pea, R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii 2152 for clover, R. tropici CIAT 899 for bean and Mesorrhizobium mediterraneum USDA 3392 for chickpea. Th...

Using a split-root technique, roots of soybean plants were divided between two pots. In one of the two pots, two maize plants were grown and half of those pots were inoculated with the vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus, Glomus fasciculatus. Fifty-two days after planting, (15)N-labeled ammonium sulfate was applied to the pots which contained only soybean roots. Forty-eight hours afte...
