Intensive agricultural practices and cultivation of exhaustive crops has deteriorated soil
fertility and its quality in agroecosystems. According to an estimate, such practices will …

In the coming years, more sustainable horticultural practices should be developed to
guarantee greater yield and yield stability, in order to meet the increasing food global …

Associations between plants and microorganisms exist in nature, and they can either be
beneficial or detrimental to host plants. Promoting beneficial plant-microbe interaction for …

The aim of this work was to assess the effects of plant-beneficial microorganisms (two
Pseudomonas strains and a mixed mycorrhizal inoculum, alone or in combination) on the …

Mycorrhizal inoculation stimulates growth, photosynthesis and nutrient uptake in a wide
range of host plants. However, the ultimate effects of arbuscular mycorrhyzal (AM) symbiosis …

In order to address the ever-increasing problem of the world's population food needs, the
optimization of farming crops yield, the combat of iron deficiency in plants (chlorosis) and the …

Nutrients are essential for optimal growth and development of plants. Nutrient availability
and composition in the soil varies largely from region to region. The deficiency of essential …

In the current study, an eco-friendly management technology to improve young carob
(Ceratonia siliqua L.) tree tolerance to water deficit was set up by using single or combined …

We previously reported on the strong symbiosis of AMF species (Rhizophagus irregularis
CD1) with the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) which is grown worldwide. In current study, it …

Soils host diverse communities that support and regulate ecosystem functions, thereby
affecting plant production and resource use efficiencies. There is increasing evidence that …
