This study investigated the influence of inoculation with a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium, Pseudomonas mendocina Palleroni, alone or in combination with an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus intraradices (Schenk & Smith) or Glomus mosseae (Nicol & Gerd.) Gerd. & Trappe, on antioxidant enzyme activities (catalase and total peroxidase), phosphatase activity, solute accumulation, growth and mineral nutrient uptake in leaves of Lactuca sativa L. cv. Tafalla affected by three different levels of salt stress. Salinity decreased lettuce growth, regardless of the biological treatment and of the salt stress level. The plants inoculated with P. mendocina had significantly greater shoot biomass than the control plants at both salinity levels, whereas the mycorrhizal inoculation treatments only were effective in increasing shoot biomass at the medium salinity level. At the highest salinity level, the water content was greater in leaves of plants treated with P. mendocina or G. mosseae. At the medium salinity level, G. intraradices- or G. mosseae-colonised plants showed the highest concentrations of foliar P. The P. mendocina- and G. mosseae-colonised plants presented higher concentrations of foliar K and lower concentrations of foliar Na under high salt conditions. Salt stress decreased sugar accumulation and increased foliar proline concentration, particularly in plants inoculated with the PGPR. Increasing salinity stress raised significantly the antioxidant enzyme activities, including those of total peroxidase and catalase, of lettuce leaves compared to their respective non-stressed controls. The PGPR strain induced a higher increase in these antioxidant enzymes in response to severe salinity. Inoculation with selected PGPR could serve as a useful tool for alleviating salinity stress in salt-sensitive plants.  相似文献

This study compared the effectiveness of four arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal isolates (two autochthonous presumably drought-tolerant Glomus sp and two allochthonous presumably drought-sensitive strains) on a drought-adapted plant (Lavandula spica) growing under drought conditions. The autochthonous AM fungal strains produced a higher lavender biomass, specially root biomass, and a more efficient N and K absorption than with the inoculation of similar allochthonous strains under drought conditions. The autochthonous strains of Glomus intraradices and Glomus mosseae increased root growth by 35% and 100%, respectively, when compared to similar allochthonous strains. These effects were concomitant with an increase in water content and a decline in antioxidant compounds: 25% glutathione, 7% ascorbate and 15% H2O2 by G. intraradices, and 108% glutathione, 26% ascorbate and 43% H2O2 by G. mosseae. Glutathione and ascorbate have an important role in plant protection and metabolic function under water deficit; the low cell accumulation of these compounds in plants colonized by autochthonous AM fungal strains is an indication of high drought tolerance. Non-significant differences between antioxidant activities such as glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in colonized plants were found. Thus, these results do not allow the generalization that GR, CAT and SOD were correlated with the symbiotic efficiency of these AM fungi on lavender drought tolerance. Plants colonized by allochthonous G. mosseae (the less efficient strain under drought conditions) had less N and K content than those colonized by similar autochthonous strain. These ions play a key role in osmoregulation. The AM symbiosis by autochthonous adapted strains also produced the highest intraradical and arbuscular development and extraradical mycelial having the greatest fungal SDH and ALP-ase activities in the root systems. Inoculation of autochthonous drought tolerant fungal strains is an important strategy that assured the greatest tolerance water stress contributing to the best lavender growth under drought.  相似文献

This study investigated the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal consortia on growth, photosynthetic pigments, solutes concentration (e.g., sugars and proline), and antioxidant responses at different levels of Na2SO4 stress (0–0.5%, w:w) in potted culture of Jatropha. Results showed that increasing salt levels caused a significant reduction in survival (%), growth parameters, leaf relative water content (LRWC) (%), and chlorophyll content with an increase in electrolyte leakage (%) and lipid peroxidation of membranes of Jatropha. AM inoculation improved biomass yields as well as other physiological parameters (LRWC (%), chlorophyll, proline, and soluble sugar) of salt-stressed Jatropha over noninoculated plants. Tolerance index of Jatropha was higher with AM fungi than without at all salt levels; however, a decline in its value was recorded with increased salinity levels. AM inoculation also enhanced the activities of antioxidant enzymes (e.g., superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase, and glutathione reductase) and decreased oxidative damage to lipids. In conclusion, results indicate that AM inoculation was capable of alleviating the damage caused by salinity stress on Jatropha plants by reducing lipid peroxidation of membrane and membrane permeability and increasing the accumulation of solutes and antioxidant enzyme activity.  相似文献

Three arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomus mosseae, Glomus claroideum, and Glomus intraradices) were compared for their root colonizing ability and activity in the root of Astragalus sinicus L. under salt-stressed soil conditions. Mycorrhizal formation, activity of fungal succinate dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatase, as well as plant biomass, were evaluated after 7 weeks of plant growth. Increasing the concentration of NaCl in soil generally decreased the dry weight of shoots and roots. Inoculation with AM fungi significantly alleviated inhibitory effect of salt stress. G. intraradices was the most efficient AM fungus compared with the other two fungi in terms of root colonization and enzyme activity. Nested PCR revealed that in root system of plants inoculated with a mix of the three AM fungi and grown under salt stress, the majority of mycorrhizal root fragments were colonized by one or two AM fungi, and some roots were colonized by all the three. Compared to inoculation alone, the frequency of G. mosseae in roots increased in the presence of the other two fungal species and highest level of NaCl, suggesting a synergistic interaction between these fungi under salt stress.  相似文献

The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inoculation on pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv. Zhongjiao 105) plant growth and on some physiological parameters in response to increasing soil Cu concentrations was studied. Treatments consisted of inoculation or not with Glomus mosseae and the addition of Cu to soil at the concentrations of 0 (control), 2 (low), 4 (medium), and 8 (high) mM CuSO4. AM fungal inoculation decreased Cu concentrations in plant organs and promoted biomass yields as well as the contents of chlorophyll, soluble sugar, total protein, and the concentrations of P, K, Ca, and Mg. Plants grown in high Cu concentration exhibited a Cu-induced proline accumulation and also an increase in total free amino acid contents; however, both were lower in mycorrhizal pepper. Cu-induced oxidative stress by increasing lipid peroxidation rates and the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase, and AM symbiosis enhanced these antioxidant enzyme activities and decreased oxidative damage to lipids. In conclusion G. mosseae was able to maintain an efficient symbiosis with pepper plants in contaminated Cu soils, improving plant growth under these conditions, which is likely to be due to reduced Cu accumulation in plant tissues, reduced oxidative stress and damage to lipids, or enhanced antioxidant capacity.  相似文献

Seedlings of Cleopatra mandarin (Citrus reshni Hort. ex Tan.) and Alemow (Citrus macrophylla Wester) were inoculated with a mixture of AM fungi (Rhizophagus irregularis and Funneliformis mosseae) (+AM), or left non-inoculated (−AM). From forty-five days after fungal inoculation onwards, half of +AM or −AM plants were irrigated with nutrient solution containing 50 mM NaCl. Three months later, AM significantly increased plant growth in both Cleopatra mandarin and Alemow rootstocks. Plant growth was higher in salinized +AM plants than in non-salinized −AM plants, demonstrating that AM compensates the growth limitations imposed by salinity. Whereas AM-inoculated Cleopatra mandarin seedlings had a very good response under saline treatment, inoculation in Alemow did not alleviate the negative effect of salinity. The beneficial effect of mycorrhization is unrelated with protection against the uptake of Na or Cl and the effect of AM on these ions did not explain the different response of rootstocks. This response was related with the nutritional status since our findings confirm that AM fungi can alter host responses to salinity stress, improving more the P, K, Fe and Cu plant nutrition in Cleopatra mandarin than in Alemow plants. AM inoculation under saline treatments also increased root Mg concentration but it was higher in Cleopatra mandarin than in Alemow. This could explain why AM fungus did not completely recovered chlorophyll concentrations in Alemow and consequently it had lower photosynthesis rate than control plants. AM fungi play an essential role in citrus rootstock growth and biomass production although the intensity of this response depends on the rootstock salinity tolerance.  相似文献

This study was designed to investigate the possible effects of 24-Epibrassinolide (BR), arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus mosseae, singularly and collectively under salt stress in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants. After foliar spraying of mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants by 5 µM epibrassinolide (24-Epi), they were treated with 0 and 150 mM NaCl for 2 weeks and then harvested. The results showed interactions of G. mosseae and 24-Epi could alleviate the adverse effects of salinity by improving relative water content (RWC) of leaves (62%), relative growth rate (40.74%), shoot fresh weights (39.83%) and shoot phosphorous content (63.93%), stimulating leaf enzymatic antioxidant activities including catalase (2.24 fold) and ascorbate peroxidase (2.18 fold) as well as malondialdehyde (36.17%) and H2O2 concentrations (49.74%) as compared to those of NaCl treatments. Moreover, mycorrhizal dependency of root dry weight (2%) and phosphorus concentration (0.4%) increased with AM infection and 24-Epi application under saline condition. Leaf RWC, also, negatively correlated with membrane electrolyte leakage. Furthermore, the greatest mitigating effects were observed in mycorrhizal plants subjected to NaCl and 24-Epi. This study indicated that 24-Epi application and AM fungi may synergistically mitigate harmful impacts of salinity in wheat plants.  相似文献

The growth of licorice in arid areas faces nutritional and environmental stresses. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have been shown to increase the abilities of plants to develop. However, little is known regarding the role of AM fungi in licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) growth. In the present study, by inoculation with two AM fungi, Glomus mosseae (Nicolson & Gerdemann) Gerd. & Trappe and Glomus veriforme (P. Karst.), the effects on licorice growth in sand were examined by measuring plant height, number of leaves, shoot and root fresh weight, and by analyzing morphological parameters of the root system in sand. The influence of the two microorganisms on the accumulation of mineral nutritions and bioactive components in licorice were also investigated. The results showed that mycorrhyzae were of the Arum-type and their colonization frequency (F %), colonization intensity (M %) and colonization intensity (m %) of AM fungi inoculation were found to be 80.0–84.6%, 49.4–60.0% and 58.4–71.9%, respectively. The inoculation significantly improved plant growth during early and late growth stages in comparison with the control. Moreover, inoculation of G. mosseae and G. versiforme, alone or in combination, improved plant phosphorus acquisition in the leaf over non-inoculation plants. In addition, mycorrhiza formation enhanced the glycyrrhizin concentration in roots, but resulted in a considerable reduction of the root oxidase activity. The results indicate that the inoculation with AM fungi could be a useful approach to increase the licorice pharmic quality.  相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi exist widely in natural ecosystems as well as in salt-affected soils and are considered suitable candidates for bio-amelioration of saline soils. Plants respond to salinity by accumulating sugars and other low-molecular-weight compatible solutes. One such compound is trehalose, which has been found to play an important role as a stress protectant. The aim of the present investigation was to study interactions between an AM fungus and salinity stress on growth, nitrogen fixation, and trehalose metabolism in Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. (pigeonpea). Two genotypes [Sel 85N (salt-tolerant) and ICP 13997 (salt-sensitive)] were subjected to saline treatments with and without mycorrhizal inoculations. Salinity reduced plant biomass (shoot and root) in both genotypes and resulted in a decline in shoot-to-root ratio (SRR); however, a smaller decline was observed in Sel 85N than in ICP 13997. AM colonization was reduced with increasing salinity levels but mycorrhizal responsiveness (MR) increased. Genotypic variability in nitrogen fixation and trehalose metabolism in response to salinity and mycorrhization was observed. An increment in nodule number was accompanied by a reduction in dry mass. Subsequently, nodular activity (leghemoglobin, acetylene-reduction activity [ARA], nitrogen content) was reduced under soil salinity, which was more profound in ICP 13997 than in Sel 85N. The symbiotic association with Glomus mosseae led to significant improvement in plant dry mass and nitrogen-fixing potential of nodules under salt stress. Salinity led to an increase in trehalose-6-P synthetase (TPS) and trehalose-6-P phosphatase (TPP) activities resulting in increased trehalose content in nodules, which was accompanied by inhibition of trehalose catabolism (trehalase activity). AM plants had lower trehalase activity under saline and nonsaline conditions. Thus, a symbiotic relationship between plant roots and G. mosseae might have resulted in salinity tolerance in a genotype-dependent manner.  相似文献

Field response of wheat to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and drought stress   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Mycorrhizal plants often have greater tolerance to drought than nonmycorrhizal plants. This study was conducted to determine the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inoculation on growth, grain yield and mineral acquisition of two winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars grown in the field under well-watered and water-stressed conditions. Wheat seeds were planted in furrows after treatment with or without the AM fungi Glomus mosseae or G. etunicatum. Roots were sampled at four growth stages (leaf, tillering, heading and grain-filling) to quantify AM fungi. There was negligible AM fungi colonization during winter months following seeding (leaf sampling in February), when soil temperature was low. During the spring, AM fungi colonization increased gradually. Mycorrhizal colonization was higher in well-watered plants colonized with AM fungi isolates than water-stressed plants. Plants inoculated with G. etunicatum generally had higher colonization than plants colonized with G. mosseae under both soil moisture conditions. Biomass and grain yields were higher in mycorrhizal than nonmycorrhizal plots irrespective of soil moisture, and G. etunicatum inoculated plants generally had higher biomass and grain yields than those colonized by G. mosseae under either soil moisture condition. The mycorrhizal plants had higher shoot P and Fe concentrations than nonmycorrhizal plants at all samplings regardless of soil moisture conditions. The improved growth, yield and nutrient uptake in wheat plants reported here demonstrate the potential of mycorrhizal inoculation to reduce the effects of drought stress on wheat grown under field conditions in semiarid areas of the world.  相似文献

A pot study was conducted to determine the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomus mosseae and Paraglomus occultum) and salt (NaCl) stress on growth, photosynthesis, root morphology and ionic balance of citrus (Citrus tangerine Hort. ex Tanaka) seedlings. Eighty-five-day-old seedlings were exposed to 100 mM NaCl for 60 days to induce salt stress. Mycorrhizal colonization of citrus seedlings was not affected by salinity when associated with P. occultum, but significantly decreased when with G. mosseae. Compared with the non-mycorrhizal controls, mycorrhizal seedlings generally had greater plant height, stem diameter, shoot, root and total plant biomass, photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate and stomatal conductance under the 0 and 100 mM NaCl stresses. Root length, root projected area and root surface area were also higher in the mycorrhizal than in the non-mycorrhizal seedlings, but higher root volume in seedlings with G. mosseae. Leaf Na+ concentrations were significantly decreased, but leaf K+ and Mg2+ concentrations and the K+/Na+ ratio were increased when seedlings with both G. mosseae and P. occultum. Under the salt stress, Na+ concentrations were increased but K+ concentrations decreased in the mycorrhizal seedlings. Under the salt stress, Ca2+ concentrations were increased in the seedlings with P. occultum or without AM fungi (AMF), but decreased with G. mosseae. Ratios of both Ca2+/Na+ and Mg2+/Na+ were also increased in seedlings with G. mosseae under the non-salinity stress, while only the Mg2+/Na+ ratio was increased in seedlings with P. occultum under the salt stress. Our results suggested that salt tolerance of citrus seedlings could be enhanced by associated AMF with better plant growth, root morphology, photosynthesis and ionic balance.  相似文献

An influence of dual inoculation with the rhizosphere bacteriumAgrobacterium radiobacter, and the VAM fungi,Glomus mosseae andGlomus sp., on maize growth and mycorrhizal infection was observed. Separate inoculations of bacteria or fungi showed significant positive effects on the shoot biomass production of pot-cultured plants only at the last of three consecutive harvests. Plant biomass production was enhanced substantially after a dual inoculation with bacteria and fungi. Synergistic interaction of fungal and bacterial inoculation and growth stimulation was evident at all three harvests compared to uninoculated plants and also compared to plants inoculated with fungi or bacteria only. The dual inoculation increased the shoot biomass of plants by approximately 30% as compared with control. No significant differences were found in mycorrhizal infection between plants uninoculated and inoculated with bacteria.Agrobacterium radiobacter seems to be compatible with mycorrhizal symbiosis and can act a synergistic partner of some VAM fungi.  相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) improve functioning of legume-Rhizobium symbiosis under salinity. However, plant responses to mycorrhization vary depending on the plant and fungal species. The current study aimed to compare the effectiveness of a native inoculum from saline soil and two exotic isolates, Funneliformis mosseae and Rhizophagus irregularis on two Cajanus cajan (pigeonpea) genotypes (Paras, Pusa 2002) subjected to NaCl stress. Salinity depleted nodulation and nutrient status in both genotypes with higher negative effects in Paras. Although all AM fungi improved growth, R. irregularis performed better by promoting higher biomass accumulation, nodulation, N2 fixation and N, P uptake which correlated with higher AM colonization. R. irregularis inoculated plants also accumulated higher trehalose in nodules due to decreased trehalase and increased trehalose-6-P synthase, trehalose-6-phosphatase activities. The results suggest that higher stability of R. irregularis-pigeonpea symbiosis under salt stress makes it an effective ameliorator for overcoming salt stress in pigeonpea.  相似文献

Background and aims

Acacia cyclops is an invasive species within Mediterranean ecosystems, characteristically low in soil nutrients. Thus associations with nitrogen-fixing bacteria (NFB) and arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) may provide an advantage to these legumes. This study investigated the role of AM and NFB in the growth and nutritional physiology of A. cyclops.

Methods

Seedlings were inoculated with?naturally occurring?NFB, Glomus mosseae or both, and grown under glasshouse conditions for 5 months. Plants were cultivated in sand and supplied with a 20 % strength nutrient solution.?Xylem sap nutrients, photosynthetic rates, biomass and chemical compositions, were recorded.

Results

The dual inoculation decreased the colonization of both symbionts, compared to a single symbiosis with either symbiont. Despite low colonization levels, the dual symbiosis increased host biomass and relative growth rates. This was associated with increased photosynthetic rates and enhanced nutrition. Additionally, dual symbiotic plants had enhanced N and P acquisition and utilization rates. Xylem sap analysis showed higher levels of NH 4 + being exported from the roots to the shoots in the dual symbiotic plants compared with other treatments.

Conclusions

These findings suggest the dual symbiosis is an important factor in the growth and development of A. cyclops under nutrient limiting conditions.  相似文献

The effects of an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus mosseae, and a phosphate-solubilizing microorganism (PSM), Mortierella sp., and their interactions, on nutrient (N, P and K) uptake and the ionic composition of different root tissues of the halophyte Kosteletzkya virginica (L.), cultured with or without NaCl, were evaluated. Plant biomass, AM colonization and PSM populations were also assessed. Salt stress adversely affected plant nutrient acquisition, especially root P and K, resulting in an important reduction in shoot dry biomass. Inoculation of the AM fungus or/and PSM strongly promoted AM colonization, PSM populations, plant dry biomass, root/shoot dry weight ratio and nutrient uptake by K. virginica, regardless of salinity level. Ion accumulation in root tissues was inhibited by salt stress. However, dual inoculation of the AM fungus and PSM significantly enhanced ion (e.g., Na+, Cl?, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+) accumulation in different root tissues, and maintained lower Na+/K+ and Ca2+/Mg2+ ratios and a higher Na+/Ca2+ ratio, compared to non-inoculated plants under 100 mM NaCl conditions. Correlation coefficient analysis demonstrated that plant (shoot or root) dry biomass correlated positively with plant nutrient uptake and ion (e.g., Na+, K+, Mg2+ and Cl?) concentrations of different root tissues, and correlated negatively with Na+/K+ ratios in the epidermis and cortex. Simultaneously, root/shoot dry weight ratio correlated positively with Na+/Ca2+ ratios in most root tissues. These findings suggest that combined AM fungus and PSM inoculation alleviates the deleterious effects of salt on plant growth by enabling greater nutrient (e.g., P, N and K) absorption, higher accumulation of Na+, K+, Mg2+ and Cl? in different root tissues, and maintenance of lower root Na+/K+ and higher Na+/Ca2+ ratios when salinity is within acceptable limits.  相似文献

Improved salt tolerance of mycorrhizal plants is commonly attributed to their better mineral nutrition, particularly phosphorus. However, the effect of arbuscular-mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on salt tolerance may not be limited to this mechanism. We investigated the possibility that non-nutritional effects of AM fungi, based on proline accumulation or increased photosynthesis and related parameters, can influence the tolerance of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) to salinity. Three levels of salt (3, 4 and 5 g NaCl kg-1 dry soil) were applied and plants were maintained under these conditions for 7 weeks. The salt-treated AM plants produced greater root and shoot dry weights than unfertilized or P-fertilized non-AM controls. With increasing salinity, both shoot and root dry weights were reduced, but this decrease was greater in uninoculated plants. In particular, shoot dry weight was not reduced in G. fasciculatum-colonized plants as a consequence of salt, whereas in uninoculated plants it was reduced by about 35% at the highest salt level. Proline accumulation was considerably lower for P-amended non-AM and for AM plants except for G. mosseae-colonized plants than was the case for unamended plants. Transpiration, carbon dioxide exchange rate (CER), stomatal conductance and water use efficiency (WUE) were higher in mycorrhizal plants. At 5 g NaCl kg-1, both photosynthesis and WUE increased by more than 100% in mycorrhizal treatment relative to uninoculated plants. The contents of phosphorus of P-fertilized non-AM plants was similar to or higher than those of G. mosseae- and G. fasciculatum-colonized plants. Plants colonized by G. deserticola had the highest P-content regardless of salt level. Hence, the effect of G. mosseae and G. fasciculatum on salt tolerance in this experiment could not be attributed to a difference in the P content. The mechanisms by which these two fungi alleviated salt stress appeared to be based on physiological processes (increased CER, transpiration, stomatal conductance and WUE) rather than on nutrient uptake (N or P).  相似文献

The biocontrol potential of two arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Funneliformis mosseae and Acaulospora laevis) and Trichoderma viride was assessed against tomato wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. f. sp. lycopersici under pot condition. All the bioagent showed appreciable results in increasing plant growth. Combined inoculation of F. mosseae, A. laevis and T. viride showed maximum increases in plant height, shoot fresh weight, root dry weight, number of leaves and number of branches per plant while dual inoculation of F. mosseae and T. viride increased rest of the growth parameters like shoot dry weight, root fresh weight, root length and leaf area. AM colonisation and spore number was found highest in single inoculation of AMF, which decreases with the addition of T. viride. But, this decrease has no effect on biocontrol efficiency of bioagents. Photosynthesis, chlorophyll content and nutrient content were markedly decreased by pathogen infection. Bioagent application overcomes this effect and a remarkable increase in the plant phosphorus and nitrogen content was recorded. Among both the AMF, F. mosseae proved to be more effective strain compared to A. laevis for tomato. Maximum reduction in disease incidence and severity was recorded in combined inoculation of F. mosseae, A. laevis and T. viride. Whereas control plants without any bioagent showed maximum occurrence of disease. The findings of this study concludes that soil inoculation with F. mosseae along with root inoculation with conidial suspension of T. viride before transplantation offered better survival and resistance to tomato seedlings against Fusarium wilt.  相似文献

To understand arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi resources and develop AM fungal species in ornamental plants with saline-alkaline tolerances, Iris lactea, which grows in the Songnen saline-alkaline grassland with a high ornamental value, was selected as the experimental material, and the colonization characteristics of its roots and the AM fungal diversity in its rhizosphere were explored. The results of the observations and calculations of mycorrhizae from ten different samples showed that AM fungi colonized the roots of I. lactea and formed Arum-type mycorrhizal structures. There was a significant correlation between soil spore density and pH value, while the colonization rate showed a fluctuating trend with increasing pH values. The observed colonization intensities were of Levels II (1%–10%) or III (11%–50%), and the vesicle abundances were of grades A2 or A3 among different sites. AM fungi produced a large number of mycelia and vesicles in the roots of I. lactea after colonization. Thirty-seven species belonging to 15 genera of AM fungi were isolated from the rhizosphere of I. lactea and identified by morphological identification. Funneliformis and Glomus were the dominant genera, accounting for 21.79% and 20.85% of the total number, respectively. F. mosseae and Rhizophagus intraradices were isolated in all samples with importance values of 58.62 and 51.19, respectively. These results are expected to provide a theoretical basis for the analysis of the salt tolerance mechanism of I. lactea and for the discovery, exploration and further screening of AM fungal resources with salinity tolerances in saline-alkaline soils.  相似文献

Arsenic (As) contamination of irrigation water represents a major constraint to Bangladesh agriculture. While arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have their most significant effect on P uptake, they have also been shown to alleviate metal toxicity to the host plant. This study examined the effects of As and inoculation with an AM fungus, Glomus mosseae, on lentil (Lens culinaris L. cv. Titore). Plants were grown with and without AM inoculum for 9 weeks in a sand and terra green mixture 50:50 v/v and watered with five levels of As (0, 1, 2, 5, 10 mg As L−1 arsenate). Inoculum of Rhizobium leguminosarum b.v. Viceae strain 3841 was applied to all plants. Plants were fed with modified Hoagland solution (1/10 N of a full-strength solution and without P). Plant height, leaf number, pod number, plant biomass and shoot and root P concentration/offtake increased significantly due to mycorrhizal infection. Plant height, leaf/ pod number, plant biomass, root length, shoot P concentration/offtake, root P offtake and mycorrhizal infection decreased significantly with increasing As concentration. However, mycorrhizal inoculation reduced As concentration in roots and shoots. This study shows that growing lentil with compatible AM inoculum can minimise As toxicity and increase growth and P uptake.  相似文献
