The effect of mycorrhiza fungi was studied on growth and yield of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) in Fereidoonshahr, Esfahan, Iran during 2013 growing season. The experiment treatments were arranged in a factorial design based on a complete randomized block design with three replications. Four phosphorus fertilizer levels of 25%, 50% 75% and 100% P recommended with two levels of Mycorrhiza: with ...

In order to evaluate the effects of inoculants and chemical fertilizer on quantitative and qualitative yield, a bread wheat cultivar treated with Azotobacter, arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) and nitrogen sources by using split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with three replications in Fars Agricultural Research Station during 2007-2008. Main plots consisted of nitrogen f...

introduction: drought stress is one of the main problems in agricultural productions in arid and semiarid regions such as iran. lack of water influences on most of plant physiological processes such as photosynthes, cellular development and uptake and transmission of nutrients in plants. some approaches such as selection of resistance cultivars to drought stress, and selection of dripped irriga...

The area planted with avocado crops in Colombia has been growing rapidly recent years, especially for export varieties such as Hass. increase coincided increased phytosanitary problems, where pathogens fungi of the genus Verticillium spp. are becoming economic importance. objective this study was to evaluate different control strategies wilt disease caused by spp., under vitro, net house, and f...

The cultivation of grain legumes (e.g., common bean) in sub-Saharan Africa contributes to the provision food for a growing population and delivers environmental benefits such as inputs nitrogen (N) crops soil via symbiotic fixation (SNF). However, success SNF is constrained by several factors poor efficiency native rhizobial strains fix N, low availability phosphorus (P) acidity soils. Two tria...

Fungi profoundly affect nearly all terrestrial ecological processes and events; accurate information on the fungal component is required to adequately understand how ecosystems function (Trappe and Luoma 1992). When fungal mycelia form particular associations with a host plant’s fine roots, a symbiotic organ forms, called a mycorrhiza. Through this structure the plant provides carbohydrates to ...

Red mud or bauxite residue is a highly alkaline toxic by-product that generated during the production of aluminum by Bayer’s process. Around 1.5 tons residues are produced for generating 1 ton alumina. The toxicity major catastrophe due to its disposal management as it limits growth plant species because high alkalinity and salinity. In present study, bioprospects carried through cyanobacterial...
