Mycorrhizal Inoculation

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are often considered bioameliorators. AMF can promote plant growth under various stressful conditions; however, differences between male and female clones in mycorrhizal strategies that protect plants from the detrimental effects of salinity are not well studied. In this study, we aimed to examine the interactive effects of salinity and AMF on the growth, photosynthetic traits, nutrient uptake, and biochemical responses of Morus alba males and females. In a factorial setup, male and female M. alba clones were subjected to three salinity regimes (0, 50, and 200 mM NaCl) and planted in soil with or without Funneliformis mosseae inoculation. The results showed that NaCl alone conferred negative effects on the growth, salinity tolerance, photosynthetic performance, and shoot and root ionic ratios (K+/Na+, Ca2+/Na+, and Mg2+/Na+) in both sexes; in contrast, mycorrhizal inoculation mitigated the detrimental effects of salinity. Furthermore, the mycorrhizal effects were closely correlated with Mn2+, proline, and N concentrations. Females benefited more from AMF inoculation as shown by the enhancements in their biomass accumulation, and N, proline, K+, Mg2+, Fe2+, Zn2+, and Mn2+ concentrations than males with mycorrhizal inoculation under saline conditions. In comparison, male plants inoculated with AMF showed improvements in biomass allocated to the roots, P, and peroxidase concentrations under saline conditions. These sex-specific differences suggest that male and female mulberry clones adopted different mycorrhizal strategies when growing under saline conditions. Overall, our results provide insight into the sex-specific difference in the performance of AMF-associated mulberry clones, suggesting that female mulberry could be more suitable for vegetation remediation than the male one, due to its higher salinity tolerance.

Abstract Background and AimsThe protective effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on salt-stressed crop plants had been well studied. However, the physiological mechanism of AMF in mitigating adverse impact caused by salinity stress in different tissues of woody plants is not clear. Gleditsia sinensis Lam. is a valuable tree species with various phamaceutical uses; however, high soil NaCl concentration limits its growth in saline soil including coastal areas. This study aimed to investigate the effects of AMF on G. sinensis salinity tolerance and reveal its underlying physiological mechanism.MethodsA greenhouse experiment was performed. G. sinensis seedlings with and without AMF inoculation were subjected to four salinity levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mM NaCl). After 2 months, the seedlings were harvested and analyzed for growth and biochemical parameters.ResultsHigh AMF colonization rates (over 95%) and high mycorrhizal dependency (over 75%) were observed across all NaCl levels, and AMF-inoculated plants presented significantly higher aboveground and below ground growth than non-inoculated plants. AMF effectively enhanced the salinity tolerance of G. sinensis seedlings by enhancing leaf gas exchanges inducing higher leaf net photosynthetic rates; improving peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activities resulting in higher membrane stability indexes and lower malondialdehyde contents in leaves and roots; increasing P uptake and P/N ratio to mitigate P-limited biomass products; selectively absorbing less Na + and more Ca 2+ in their tissues to alleviate ion toxicity and maintain more favorable ion balances (e.g., K + /Na + ) in their tissues.ConclusionsThe results suggested the feasibility of using AMF to improve salinity tolerance as well as afforestation and rehabilitation of G. sinensis in coastal areas.

Single inoculation with respectively three strains of Rhizobium (Ci-1, Ci-2, Ci-3) and two strains of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (78-1 and 41-3) as well as their double inoculation had been tested for their effectiveness in increasing the growth of yam bean (Pachyrhizus erosus) in a greenhouse experiment.This study was conducted at the Laboratory of Soil Biology, Department of Soil Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) Bogor.The results showed that all Rhizobium inoculation did not increase the growth of yam bean. On the other hand, inoculation with two strains of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increased the plant growth significantly (4 times for strain 78-1 and 1.46 time for 41-3). Double inoculation between three Rhizobium strains and two of arbusarlar mycorrhizal fungi strains (78-1 and 41-3) was not significantly different with a single arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculation (78-1 or 41-3).
