For sustainable agriculture to succeed, especially in the production of organic food, use biofertilizers and biopesticides is essential. Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis important for improving plant development through increased nutrient intake, soil stabilization, carbon sequestration creation glomalin, a distinct specialized protein. It was not determined whether glomalin affects soil-borne ...

An investigation has been made about the vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonization in some medicinal plants Catharanthus roseus, C. pusillus, Wrightia tinctoria, Thevetia peruviana, Nerium indicum and Alstonia scholaris belongs to family Apocyanaceae were screened for the occurrence and association of VA mycorrhizal fungi. All the plants screened in the study harbored VA mycorrhizal f...

a greenhouse experiment was performed in the framework of a completely randomized design and a factorial arrangement to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) on growth and on root antioxidant enzyme changes of two citrus rootstocks (sour orange and rough lemon). the experimental factors were: mycorrhizal treatments at two levels (inoculation with glomus mosseae vs. control) ...

in order to investigate the response of mycorrhizal fungi to different kinds of fungicides and phytohormone balance in soybean, the present study was carried out during 2008-2009 at research site of azad university of karaj branch as factorial based on randomized complete block design with two factors and four replications. treatments were all combination of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi species...

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) can establish symbiotic interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and can be infected by several pathogenic viruses. Here, we investigated the impact of mycorrhization by the fungus Glomus mosseae on the Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) infection of tomato plants by transcriptomic and hormones level analyses. In TSWV-infected mycorrhizal plants, the AM f...

An available remediation technique--arbuscular mycorrhizal phytoremediation (AMPR)--is further proposed for soils contaminated with phenanthrene and pyrene as representative polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) utilizing a greenhouse pot experiment. The initial concentrations of phenanthrene and/or pyrene in soils were 103 mg kg(-1) and 74 mg kg(-1), respectively. The host plant was alfalfa ...

Gerbera jamesoniiis of commercial significance and fifth most used cut flower in the world today. A pot experiment was performed to see the effect of co-inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) i.e. (Glomus mosseae andAcaulospora laevis) with phosphate solubilizing bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescensin the presence of different doses of superphosphate (low, medium, high) on growth establi...
