Annual Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) is one of the most widely cultivated garden flowers and highly suitable for loose flower, pot culture bedding purposes. The objective this research was to evaluate effect different mycorrhizal strains vermicompost on growth flowering coronarium. treatments comprise 4 mycorrhiza (No application, Glomus mosseae, Acaulospora laevis, Gigaspora marg...

Bahia grass (Paspalum notatum) and industrial sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) colonized by Glomus deserticola, G. etunicatum, and G. intraradices were grown in aeroponic cultures. After 12 to 14 weeks, all roots were colonized by the inoculated vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Abundant vesicles and arbuscules formed in the roots, and profuse sporulation was detected intra-and extraradical...

Effects of the application potassium silicate (PS) and an arbuscular mycorrhiza fungus (AMF) (Glomus mosseae) were investigated on alleviating impacts drought stress Matthiola incana in a split-split-plot experiment two consecutive years. The main plot was assigned to at three levels irrigation (25%, 50%, 70%, field capacity) comparing with control (100% sub-plots AMF (0 200 g fungi pots) sub-s...

two fungal species glomus mosseae and glomus intraradices as well as meloidogyne javanica nematode were used in order to evaluate the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on control of different populations of root-knot nematode in tomato. a greenhouse test was established as factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with 8 treatments and 4 replicates followed by mycorrhizal...

We studied the production of xyloglucanase enzymes of pea and lettuce roots in the presence of saprobe and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The AM fungus Glomus mosseae and the saprobe fungi Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium oxysporum-126, Trichoderma harzianum, Penicillium chrysogenum, Pleurotus ostreatus and Aspergillus niger were used. G. mosseae increased the shoot and root dry weight of pea...

introduction: arsenic is a highly toxic metalloid in group 15 of periodic table. the information on environmental behaviour of arsenic, however, is still scarce. contamination of soils and water with arsenic and antimony due to their widespread industrial application and mining activities has raised serious environmental concerns. nearly all arsenic-contaminated soils results from human activit...

Plant root exudates contain a range of low molecular weight metabolites that trigger many of the structural and physiological changes associated with the progression and establishment of mycorrhizal symbiosis. Here, the physiological response triggered by acetosyringone (AS) was studied in Glomus intraradices. Incubation of G. intraradices spores with AS resulted in an overall increase in hypha...

Application of strategies inducing a heavy metal tolerant turfgrass is necessary for cultivation management. Water and soil contamination with heavy metals is an increasing concern for the human and environment health. This study was conducted to evaluate the mitigation of environmental Cd toxicity through landscape turfgrasses as affected by two arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species and t...

The presence of actinorhizas and arbuscular mycorrhizas may reduce plant stresses caused by adverse soil conditions. A greenhouse experiment was conducted using a sediment with a high pH, resulting from the disposal of waste originated at an acetylene and polyvinylchloride factory, in which Black alder (Alnus glutinosa) seedlings were inoculated either with Glomus intraradices BEG163 (originall...

We monitored the development of intraradical and extraradical mycelia of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi Scutellospora calospora and Glomus intraradices when colonizing Plantago lanceolata. The occurrence of arbuscules (branched hyphal structures) and vesicles (lipid storage organs) was compared with the amounts of signature fatty acids. The fatty acid 16:1omega5 was used as a signature f...
