“…However, the level at which plant growth was enhanced varied between the fungal inoculants. The fresh and dry weight of inoculated plants were significantly higher than that of noninoculated plants, regardless of P level, in agreement with Abdul-Khaliq et al (2001) and Cabello et al (2005). For +P treatment, the fresh and dry weight significantly increased in non-inoculated and inoculated plants, compared to -P treatment.…”

RESUMO: Inoculação com fungos micorrízicos e adubação fosfatada no crescimento, produção de óleo essencial e absorção de nutrientes em hortelã-pimenta (Mentha piperita L.). Este estudo avaliou os efeitos da inoculação de fungos micorrízicos arbusculares Glomus mosseae, Glomus intraradices A 4 e Glomus intraradices B 1 e duas doses de fósforo (10 e 40 mg kg -1 ) sobre a colonização radicular, crescimento, absorção de nutrientes e óleos essenciais em Mentha piperita L. O estudo foi conduzido em casa de vegetação no delineamento inteiramente casualizado em esquema fatorial 4x2. Sessenta dias após o transplantio, as plantas micorrizadas apresentaram massa fresca, massa seca, e área foliar significativamente maior em comparação as não-micorrizadas. A inoculação aumentou o teor de P, K e Ca na parte aérea sendo superiores em 40 mg P kg -1 de solo. As plantas cultivadas com 40 mg P kg -1 de solo aumentaram a produção de óleo essencial por planta cerca de 40-50% em relação às cultivadas com 10 mg de P kg -1 , independentemente da micorrização. Dentre as espécies fúngicas estudadas, a inoculação com G. Intraradices A 4 e com um elevado nível de P, aumentou significativamente o crescimento e rendimento de óleos essenciais em comparação com outras espécies de fungos micorrízicos estudados. Em conclusão, a inoculação dos fungos micorrízicos arbusculares em plantas de hortelã é uma alternativa viável para aumentar a produção de óleos essenciais e reduzir o uso de fertilizantes necessários para a produção econômica de hortelã-pimenta com deficiência de fósforo no solo.

The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, in 4x2 factorial arrangement, in completely randomized design. At sixty days after transplanting, the mycorrhizal plants had significantly higher fresh matter, dry matter and leaf area compared to non-mycorrhizal plants. The inoculation increased P, K and Ca levels in the shoot which were higher under 40 mg P kg -1 of soil. Plants grown with 40 mg P kg -1 soil increased the essential oil yield per plant by about 40-50% compared to those cultivated with 10 mg P kg -1 , regardless of the mycorrhizal treatment. Among the studied fungal species, inoculation with G. intraradices A 4 and a high level of P significantly increased plant growth and essential oil yield, compared to the other studied mycorrhizal fungal species. In conclusion, inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi into peppermint plants is a feasible alternative to increase the essential oil production and reduce the use of fertilizers required to obtain economic production of peppermint under phosphorus-deficient soil condition.

“…These positive effects were described for other phosphate-solubilizing fungi, crops and cultural conditions (Singh and Reddy, 2011;Yadav et al, 2011). In addition, there was a synergistic interaction between AM fungi and P. albidum to improve fruit weight and P concentration in plant, as found for other phosphate-solubilizing fungi, crops and cultural conditions (Cabello et al, 2005;Huanshi et al, 2011). It is noteworthy that the enhancement of AM colonization level in chili pepper plants by the co-inoculation P. albidum and P. frequentans, as found in other situations (Huanshi et al, 2011).…”

A study was performed to determine the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal inoculation, using a locally isolated Claroideoglomus claroideum (Gc) ecotype, on the seedling development of chilean pepper plants, and to select an appropriate growth substrate. The first experiment consisted of two stages: (i) a seedling production stage of pepper plants were germinated and grown, inoculated or not with C. claroideum; and (ii) a seedling transplanting stage, in which seedlings were transplanted to a wider capacity containers, using the same substrates as in the seedling production stage. These were inoculated or not with C. claroideum and/or Penicillium albidum (Pa). A soil mixture was selected as the target substrate for further studies. A second experiment was then carried out and three new phosphate-solubilizing Penicillium that is, Penicillium frequentans, Penicillium jensenii and Penicillium restrictum, were incorporated as inoculation variables, in addition to the already tested P. albidum, inoculated either alone or in co-inoculation with C. claroideum. After 28 weeks, plants were harvested and fruit number, weight, and length were recorded. A synergistic interaction between C. claroideum and P. albidum to improve fruit weight and phosphorous (P) concentration was evidenced, suggesting a sustainable alternative for chilean pepper production.

“…Así mismo, se requiere de la evaluación de las interacciones entre aislamientos de HSP y de hongos de micorriza arbuscular (HMA), las cuales en algunas investigaciones han mostrado una respuesta sinérgica, promoviendo el crecimiento de las plantas gracias al mejor aprovechamiento del P (Osorio & Habte 2001, Zhang et al 2011. No obstante, en otros trabajos no se han encontrado respuestas positivas (Cabello et al 2005), lo que muestra la importancia de continuar con investigaciones básicas que profundicen en forma integral con los factores bió-ticos y abióticos involucrados con la diferentes comunidades fúngicas del suelo.…”

Filamentous and phosphate solubilizing fungi relationships with some edaphic parameters and coffee plantations management. Soil properties and the environment have multiple outcomes on fungal communities. Although, the interaction effects between management intensity, pH, available phosphorus, organic carbon, soil texture and different fractions of water stable macro-aggregates on the communities of microscopic filamentous fungi (MFF), iron phosphate solubilizing fungi (PSF-Fe), and iron and calcium phosphate solubilizing fungi (PSF-(Fe+Ca)), have been previously evaluated in field conditions, this has never been performed in terms of their combined effects, neither with phosphate solubilizing fungi. To assess this, we collected 40 composite soil samples from eight Mexican and Colombian coffee plantations, with different management intensities and physico-chemical edaphic parameters, during [2008][2009]. We isolated different communities of MFF, PSFFe and PSF-(Fe+Ca), by wet sieving and soil particles culture in Potato-Dextrose-Agar from soil samples, and we classified isolates in terms of their phosphate solubilizing ability. Following the principal component analysis results, we decided to analyze fungal communities and abiotic factors interactions for each country separately. Structural Equation Models revealed that organic carbon was positively associated to MFF richness and number of isolates (λ>0.58), but its relationship with PSF-Fe and PSF-(Fe+Ca) were variable; while the available phosphorus, pH and water stable macro-aggregate fractions did not show a clear pattern. Management intensity was negatively related to PSF-Fe (λ≤-0.21) morphotype richness and the number of isolates in Colombian coffee plantations. We found that the relationships of clay and organic carbon content, and available phosphorus and soil pH, with the species richness and number of isolates of MFF, PSF-Fe and PSF-(Fe+Ca) were highly variable; this made impossible to generalize the responses between saprotrophic fungal groups and geographic zones. The management intensity was not related to species richness and number of isolates of MFF in any coffee areas, while for PSF the relationship could not be defined. The different water stable macro-aggregates fractions did not show a defined pattern in relation to the species richness and the number of isolates of saprophytic and phosphate solubilizing fungi (PSF). This study highlights the need to take into account edaphic and geographic context in order to reach a better understanding of the intensity management effects on MFF and PSF function in agroecosystems.
