The effects of two Bacillus strains (Bacillus pumillus and B. licheniformis) on Medicago sativa plants were determined in single or dual inoculation with three arbuscular-mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and compared to P-fertilization. Shoot and root plant biomass, values of thymidine and leucine incorporation as well as ergosterol and chitin in rhizosphere soil were evaluated to estimate metabolic acti...

We initiated a study of the effects of mycorrhizal fungal community composition on the restoration of tropical dry seasonal forest trees. Tree seedlings were planted in a severely burned experimental site (1995 fire) during the growing season of 1998 at the El Edén Ecological Reserve, in north Quintana Roo, Mexico. Seedlings of Leucaena leucocephala, Guazuma ulmifolia, Caesalpinia violacea, Pis...

to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhiza (glomus mosseae) under salt stress on physiological and some nutrient absorption in new guinea impatiens (impatiens hawkeri), an experiment established in complete random design with three replications (three pots for each replication) in greenhouse in shahrekord university in 2014. treatments were inoculation of substrate with three levels of arb...

abstract in this study, interaction between amf (g. mosseae and glomus spp., respectively indigenous and non-indigenous of hm-contaminated areas) with cd-resistant pgprs (bacillus mycoides and micrococcus roseus, indigenous of contaminated areas) on the growth, cd and nutrient uptake of maize plant (zea mays l.) in cd polluted soil were investigated. with increasing levels of cd, shoot and root...

Effects of the mycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices on establishment of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) seedlings in saline conditions were studied in a glasshouse experiment. Growth and nutrient uptake were determined 10, 20 and 30 days after transplanting of mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal matched seedlings into soils with five different levels of salinity. Mycorrhizal plants...

This research aims to study the effect of Mycorrizal fungus and Plant-Growth-Promoting Bacteria (PGPB) on Cadmium (Cd) uptake by one-year-old Eucalyptus Camaldulensis seedlings. The treatments have involved three levels of heavy metal (0, 30, and 60 mg/kg) for Cd, and three bacterial levels (no bacteria (B0), Bacillus (Ba105), and Pseudomonas (Ps36, Ps448)), inoculated with mycorrhizal fungus G...

A polyphasic approach has been developed to gain knowledge of suitable key indicators for the evaluation of environmental impact of genetically modified Bt 11 and Bt 176 corn lines on soil ecosystems. We assessed the effects of Bt corn (which constitutively expresses the insecticidal toxin from Bacillus thuringiensis, encoded by the truncated Cry1Ab gene) and non-Bt corn plants and their residu...

In recent years, the use of soil microbial potential including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is widely considered to enhance the better growth and nutrition of plants. This research was conducted in order to study the impact of mycorrhizal fungi on the increase of yarrow production and the plant establishment affected by the symbiotic ...
