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...

High hydrostatic pressurization is proposed for cheese ripening acceleration. Several treatments were used for accelerating ripening of goat’s milk cheese: 50 MPa / 72 h, 400 MPa / 5 min and 400 MPa / 5 min followed by 50 MPa / 72 h all at 14 °C. Moisture content and pH were higher in 400 MPa treatments compared to the others. By measuring proteolysis indexes, 400 MPa treatments were found to a...

The relationship between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and their associated bacteriacan be has great importance for sustainable agriculture especially in the case of highlymycorrhizal plants such as linseed. To evaluate the possible effect of AMF in association withphosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) on linseed plants, a 2-yr factorial experiment wasconducted based on a randomized comple...

The effect of different nitrogen levels on plant growth, phenol content, antioxidant and Nitrate reductase )NR) activity of cucumber (Cucumis sativus cv. Super) inoculated with mycorrhiza­ was studied. A factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design (CRD) with 6 replicates was designed. Treatments were three levels of nitrogen (NO3-50, NO3-75 and NO...

ABSTRACT An experiment was designed to compare cycles of selection of four maize genotypes for ear- and grain-quality characteristics, interactions with Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium verticillioides infection, and insect ear infestation in two seasons. Mean infection levels by A. flavus and F. verticillioides were significantly higher in inoculated rows than in the controls. The F. verticilli...

The growth of plants promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that live actively in plant roots and rhizosphere support has gained widespread importance agriculture. This study was carried out to obtain identify PGPR isolates from wheat soil determine their ability capacity on yield. So, were obtained soil, they identified as Bacillus sp. (B. simplex B. pumilus) by biochemical tests MALDI-TOF MS. After t...

in order to investigation the effects of different combination and amount of chemical, biological and organic manure in present of water absorbent materials on some phenological, morphological and yield of soybean, a field study was carried out gorgan region climate conditions in a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment two lev...

This greenhouse study evaluated the effects of two chemical primers for kidney bean seedlings against a bacterial wilt (Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. Flaccumfaciens) (CFF). The premise this was that oxidant would mimic signaling properties radical oxygen species and initiate cascade molecular defenses. factorial included levels foliar chlorine dioxide treatment, inoculation plus supplementa...
