Morus alba L. is an important tree species planted widely in China because of its economic value. In this report, we investigated the influence of two arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) species, Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices, alone and together, on the growth of M. alba L. seedlings under greenhouse conditions. The growth parameters and physiological performance of M. alba L. seedling...

this study was performed for evaluation of the qualitative traits of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) as affected by azotobacter and mycorrhizal symbiosis (host plant root symbiosis with the glomus fungi) as factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of college of arak islamic azad university during growing season of 2011-2012. tre...

to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under water deficit stress on linseed, a field experiment was conducted as split-plot in rcbd design with three replications at the research station of faculty of agriculture at shahrekord university in 2013. water deficit stress at four levels of no stress, mild, medium and severe stress as main factor and inoculation with glomus intraradi...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) communities were established in pots using fungal isolates from a single field in Switzerland. It was tested whether multispecies mixtures provided more phosphorus and supported greater plant growth than single AMF species. Two host plants, medic (Medicago truncatula) and leek (Allium porrum), were inoculated with three AMF species (Glomus mosseae, G. claroid...

The colonisation intensity and composition of the mycorrhizal community in the aquatic plants Lobelia dortmanna and Littorella uniflora were studied. The mycorrhizal fungi were characterised by fungal specific nested PCR and sequencing using the 5'-end of the LSU rDNA as target. For this, primers for the clade of Acaulospora, the clade including Glomus mosseae and G. intraradices and the clade ...

A survey of the natural mycorrhizal potential has been carried out in a representative area of a desertified semiarid ecosystem in the southeast of Spain. Many indigenous plants from the field site were mycorrhizal, including the dominant Anthyllis cytisoides, which had high levels of colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Low numbers of AMF spores were present in the soil, althoug...

For sustainable agriculture to succeed, especially in the production of organic food, use biofertilizers and biopesticides is essential. Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis important for improving plant development through increased nutrient intake, soil stabilization, carbon sequestration creation glomalin, a distinct specialized protein. It was not determined whether glomalin affects soil-borne ...
