In this study, the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (G. mosseae) and endosymbiont (P. indica) colonized Zea mays were treated with calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CaPNPs) and evaluated for their plant growth promotion efficiency. It was observed that CaPNPs in combination with both G. mosseae and P. indica are more potent plant growth promoter than independent combinations of CaPNPs+G. mosseae,...

biofertilizer is a substance which contains living microorganisms which can use instead of chemical fertilizer in sustainable crop production. the effects of phosphate solubilizing bacteria; root endophytic fungi (ef) piriformospora indica, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (amf) glomus mosseae on growth and nutrient uptake of sunflower plants grown in mixture with two clover species, persian c...

The effect of root exudates from non-mycorrhizal and mycorrhizal cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants colonized by one of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Gigaspora rosea Nicolson & Schenck, Glomus intraradices Smith & Schenck, or Glomus mosseae (Nicolson & Gerdemann) Gerd. & Trappe) on hyphal growth of Gi. rosea and G. intraradices in axenic culture and on root colonization by G. mosseae in...

Inoculating olive plantlets with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) Glomus mosseae, Glomus intraradices or Glomus claroideum increased plant growth and the ability to acquire nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium from non-saline as well as saline media. AMF-colonized plants also increased in survival rate after transplant. Osmotic stress caused by NaCl supply reduced stem diameter, number of ...

Phytophthora-infected plants. These results suggest some diversity in the chitinase activities concerning New chitosanase acidic isoforms have been shown in substrate specificity in mycorrhizal plants. The Glomus mosseae-colonized tomato roots and their possible implications of these observations in the induction, together with the previously described functioning of the symbiosis is discussed....

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on growth and phosphorus (P) inflow into two species of clover plant with different root morphology were studied. The experiment was arranged as a randomized complete block design consisting of a 2×3×3 factorial combination of two clover species (Trifolium alexandrinum L. and Trifolium pratense L.), three mycorrhiza states (without mycorrhiza, Gl...

Application to the soil of the insecticide dimethoate had no effect on the growth of soybean colonized by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus mosseae and by the indigenous AM fungus. The application of the recommended concentration of dimethoate decreased the percentage of colonization of soybean by the indigenous AM population, but no significant effect was observed on the colonizati...

Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici causes take-all disease, the most important root disease of cereal plants. Cereal plants are able to form a symbiotic association with soil-borne arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi which can provide bioprotection against soil-borne fungal pathogens. However, the bioprotective effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi against soil-borne fungal pathogens might vary. In...

the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) fungi on growth and phosphorus (p) inflow into two species of clover plant with different root morphology were studied. the experiment was arranged as a randomized complete block design consisting of a 2×3×3 factorial combination of two clover species (trifolium alexandrinum l. and trifolium pratense l.), three mycorrhiza states (without mycorrhiza, gl...
