A study was performed to determine the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal inoculation, using a locally isolated Claroideoglomus claroideum (Gc) ecotype, on the seedling development of chilean pepper plants, and to select an appropriate growth substrate. The first experiment consisted of two stages: (i) a seedling production stage of pepper plants were germinated and grown, inoculated ...

The system for production of inoculum of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) using sand and vermiculite irrigated with nutrient solution is promising. However, organic amendments added to the substrate can stimulate sporulation of AMF and replace the nutrient solution. The aim of this study was to maximize the production of AMF (Acaulospora longula, Claroideoglomus etunicatum, Dentiscutata heter...

Coffee seedlings are commonly produced on substrate composed of a mixture soil and cattle manure, supplemented with chemical fertilizers. Alternatives to reduce production costs produce greater quality health include the use commercial organic substrates, which require less handling. The beneficial microorganisms such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can be considered good alternative for ...

Climate change prediction indicates an increased likelihood of precipitation variability and droughts in the Mediterranean region. Previous studies demonstrated that microbial symbionts combined with supplementary irrigation could mitigate climate effects boost chickpea production low-fertility soils. The aim study was to assess inoculation a consortium plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGP...

With its premium wood quality and resistance to pests, teak is a valuable tree species remarkably required for timber trading agroforestry. The nursery stage of plantation needs critical care warrant long-term productivity. This study aimed search beneficial rhizosphere microbes assess their teak-growth-promoting potentials during stock preparation. Three rhizosphere/root-associated microbes, i...

Phytate represents an organic pool of phosphorus in soil that requires hydrolysis by phytase enzymes produced microorganisms prior to its bioavailability plants. We tested the ability a microbial suspension made from old growth maple forest’s undisturbed mineralize phytate greenhouse trial on soybean plants inoculated or non-inoculated with suspension. MiSeq Amplicon sequencing targeting bacter...

The aim of the study was to investigate species diversity AM fungi in different parts North Caucasus, biodiversity hotspot, center world’s biological diversity. Samples were taken from 5 locations (stationary trial plots, STPs) ecosystems and at various altitudes. Identification performed using sequencing for ITS1 ITS2 regions, amplified with universal primers, Illumina MiSeq employed. 19 gener...

Tea plants are sensitive to soil moisture deficit, with the level of water being a critical factor affecting their growth and quality. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can improve nutrient absorption, but it is not clear whether AMF photosynthetic characteristics tea plants. A potted study was conducted determine effects Claroideoglomus etunicatum on plant growth, leaf status, pigment content...

The argan tree, an endemic species in Morocco, has been exhaustively studied its southwestern range but neglected northeastern territory. Thus, the present study sets as objectives identification of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and evaluation tree’s roots’ mycorrhization level two stations: one region Béni Snassène (Berkane): Jebel Takermine with 7 prospected sites other at Aklim Alkabir 2 site...

A labilis szén (LOC) tartalom, az active (POXC=permanganát oxidálható szén) mérése a talajok mikrobiális aktivitásának kimutatását szolgáló módszer. Célja növények és mikroorganizmusok számára is elérhető széntartalom megállapítása. Az LOC szerves anyagok egy kis- könnyen része, biomassza szénhidrát molekulák szén-tartalmának mérésével, érzékenyebb talajon végzett beavatkozásokra teljes vagy ös...
