study the effects of inoculation with two arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) fungi, gm (glomus mosseae t.h. nicolson & gerd.)gerd & trappe) and gi (glomus intraradices  n.c. schenck & g.s. sm.) on the  herb yield, essential oil (eo) content and nutrient acquisition of basil (ocimum basilicum l.) under drought stress conditions,the experiment conducted with 9 treatments and 4 replications. drought stre...

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...

The incidence of fungal infections in immuno-compromised patients increased considerably over the last 30 years. New treatments are therefore needed against pathogenic fungi. With Candida albicans as a model, study of host-fungal pathogen interactions might reveal new sources of therapies. Transcription factors (TF) are of interest since they integrate signals from the host environment and part...

Four nodulating annual tropical wild legumes, viz., Alysicarpus monilifer, Desmodium triflorum, Indigofera linnaei and Tephrosia purpurea from three different regions in the Western Ghats ecosystem were investigated to assess their mycorrhizal status. The response ofvesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) root colonization and spore number to edaphicfactors such as soil moisture, pH and availabl...

The papaya tree is not very exploitable on the international market because of post-harvest decline fruits. In this study, we identified arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) from rhizosphere in two agroecological zones Cameroon (Njombe-Pendja: NP and Yaounde: Y). Morphological studies density, rate root colonization, diversity AMF species were evaluated. Molecular identification was performed by ...

This study was conducted to determine the combined effects of salicylic acid (SA) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Glomus mosseae) symbiosis on the growth of pistachio seedlings (Pistacia vera ‘Abareqi’) grown in the greenhouse under different drought stress (DS) levels. The arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization or exogenous SA treatment could increase ‘Abareqi’ pistachio seedl...
