“…According to Bielińska et al (2008) and Arriagada et al (2012), the enzymatic activity of soil constitutes a good indicator of its fertility and productivity. Our studies showed that the way of using soil intended for blueberry plantation had an influence on its biochemical properties evaluated on the basis of its enzymatic activity.…”

The studies were conducted at two sites (a replantation and a virgin soil site). The following two combinations were used for each of the sites: control with no treatments applied and with the application of a mycorrhizal vaccine on the root balls of the plants at the time of planting. The four-year research showed that the way of soil usage had an influence on its biochemical properties, which were evaluated on the basis of enzymatic activity, which, except for the dehydrogenases, was at a lower lever in the replanted soil site. The use of a mycorrhizal vaccine did not increase the enzymatic activity in the replanted soil site, sometimes even lowered it. The content of organic matter defined as the total content of carbon and dissolvable carbon in the soil was higher at the replanted site than at the virgin soil one. The use of the mycorrhizal vaccine contributed to the increase of the content of the organic matter but only in the virgin soil site. The soil from the plantation growing on the virgin soil was characterized by the highest content of proteolytic bacteria and the highest respiratory activity.

“…Under the influence of mycorrhization, some species of fruit trees or bushes or their rootstocks achieve better growth parameters (Raj, Sharma, 2009;Aka-Kacar et al, 2010). This also applies to highbush blueberry (Arriagada et al, 2012). Photosynthetic activity of plants also grows (Fan et al, 2008).…”

“…Inoculation of endomycorrhizae to micropropagated plants has proved their effectiveness in the resistance of these plants to transplanting stress and improving the growth and mineral nutrient uptake especially phosphorus (Jaizme-Vega et al, 2002), as well as improving physiological parameters, such as increment in photosynthetic rates and stomatal conductance and protecting plant against biotic and abiotic stresses and disease (Arriagada et al, 2012;Bárzana et al, 2014).…”

Stevia rebaudianaBert. is a non-caloric sweetener plant of medicinal and commercial values. This study was performed to micropropagate Stevia and improve its ability to withstand the sudden shocks of the environmental changes during acclimatization by using endomycorrhizae and/or Pseudomonas fluorescens. In vitro establishment of Stevia was superior by culturing shoot tips and nodal segments of mature plants on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l 6-benzyl adenine and 1 mg/l β-naphthalene acetic acid, and nodal segments gave better response when compared to shoot tips. While 6-benzyl adenine alone at 1 mg/l was found to be the most promising concentration for shoots multiplication for four successive subculturing. The best rooting response was obtained on half strength Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 1 mg/l β-naphthalene acetic acid. Adding 8 ml/l mycorrhizal root extract gave 100% rooting with the highest mean number and length of roots and shoot height. Inoculation of plantlets with endomycorrhizal spores alone in non-sterilized soil increased the survival percentage to 90% and gave the highest mean number and length of both shoots and roots, as well as leaves number. Moreover, they recorded the highest values of total chlorophyll, NPK and relative water contents.

“…[16,23] Dehydrogenase is a type of enzyme catalysing the redox reaction; it can reflect the oxidation activity of the microbes in the soil. [24,25] Urease is an enzyme with strong specificity; it can catalyse the hydrolysis of urea into ammonia, carbon dioxide and water, and is a measure of the hydrolysis potential of urea in the soil. [16,23] Both soil invertase and cellulase are key enzymes for the metabolic processes of carbon in the ecosystem.…”

White clover potted experiments were performed to investigate the effects of seven indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities isolated from different test plots subjected to long-term fertilisation on soil enzyme activities, number of soil bacteria and fungi. The results showed that the inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi communities increased the mycorrhizal infection rate of the plants and promoted the growth of plants. The Mnp treatment was most effective. The shoot biomass, root biomass, potassium and nitrogen uptake of the white clover in Mnp treatment group were increased by 61.54%, 84.00%, 62.50% and 46.71% respectively, compared with those in non-inoculation treatment. The inoculation of AMF communities had little effect on the number of bacteria in the soil, but significantly increased the number of soil fungi. Mnk treatment group had the highest number of fungi in the soil, which was 9.91 times that of the non-inoculation treatment group. The catalase and dehydrogenase activities were both significantly improved in Mnp treatment by 28.12% and 205.38% respectively, compared with those of the control treatment (-M). The urease, invertase and cellulase activities reached the highest levels in the Mck treatment; they were increased by 142.79%, 41.17% and 77.62% respectively, compared with those of the control treatment. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the soil enzyme activity was not correlated with the mycorrhizal infection rate, but correlated with the spore number of the AMF community. The impact of AMF community on soil quality is important for us to understand the function of the ecosystems. Relevant study provides important guidance for maintaining the balance of the soil-plant system and the development of sustainable agriculture.
