Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are well known symbiotic microorganism found to improve the growth of host plant by mobilizing immobile nutrients, mainly phosphorus, from soil. However, effect AM on depends percentage colonization, whereas it is not clear that percent mycorrhization impacts fungal spore abundance inoculum. Therefore, current investigation was conducted know Glomus intraradice...

This study evaluated the effects of inoculation with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Glomus mosseae, Glomus intraradices A4 and Glomus intraradices B1 and two phosphorus levels (10 and 40 mg kg-1) on root colonization, plant growth, nutrient uptake and essential oil content in Mentha piperita L. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, in 4x2 factorial arrangement, in completely randomi...

introduction in recent years, rainfall deficiency was an increasing problem in most countries; which limited the production of agricultural crops. among abiotic stresses the plants encountered, drought stress is considered as the most important limiting factor in plants growth and reproduction in natural and agricultural systems through most parts of the world; while drought stress causes 45% i...

in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizer on soybean (glycine max l.) seed vigor that produced under water deficit condition and related traits, an experiment was conducted in a factorial layout based of complete randomized block design with four replications at the research greenhouse of aboureihan campus- tehran university, iran. experimental treatments were include biofertilizer (see...

a pot experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with five treatment and five replication, in each replication were 6 plants used. the study of zinc sulphate (znso4) application (20 and 40 ppm) and salicylic acid (sa) application (50 and 150 ppm) was compared to the control (distillated water) on growth and flowering petunia hybrid. for each plant was used 100 cc of solution at ...

this research was carried out on corn in the orzuiyeh region of kerman province over two consecutive seasons (2005-6 to 2007-8). the experiment was done as a split plot with a completely randomized block design and four replications. four levels of consumed water (60%, 80%, 100% water requirement, water use based on regional custom) and three varieties (404sc, 700sc, 704sc) were the main factor...

This study evaluated the effect of mycorrhizal inoculation on growth characteristics and gel quality of Aloe Vera. Research was conducted as a randomized complete block design with three replications. Eight treatment of experiment were plant inoculation by different strains of mycorrhiza, namely, Glomus fassiculatum, G. interaradise, G. mosseae, combination of two strains of G. fasiculatum and ...

In this study, the effect of vermicompost and mycorrhizal fungi was investigated on growth, yield, chlorophyll pigments, leaf antioxidant enzymes, and seed silibinin content of Silybum marianum, milk thistle. The seeds were inoculated by two species of mycorrhiza fungi, Glomus mosseae and G. intraradices, and plants were irrigated and treated with 0, 25, 50, and 75% vermicompost after culturing...

in order to study the effect of light quality and quantity on morphological and physiological characteristics of two late and early maize (zea maize l.) s.c., an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during 2008. the experiment was carried out factorial based on randomized complete block design with six treatments and three replications. differ...
