“…The results agree with Sharifi et al (2007) who reported that the alfalfa specimens inoculated with both Rhizobium and Glomus produced the highest shoot yield, followed by mycorrhizae, rhizobium and control treatments, and they concluded that Rhizobium may affect fungal metabolism. In line with our results, Mycorrhizal wild beans (Strophostyles helvola L.) (Tsang et al 1991) and mangrove (Ceriops tagal C.B.…”

“…Goicoechea et al (1998) reported that under well-watered conditions, Rhizobium-inoculated alfalfa had the highest level of leaf proline, followed by double inoculated, AMF inoculated and control samples, respectively. In line with our results, Sharifi et al (2007) showed that the soybean (Glycine max L.) specimens inoculated with AMF had higher proline than the control sample under saline conditions. Gloux and Le Rudulier (1989) showed that, like carbon and nitrogen, proline betaine synthesized by alfalfa can be used as an energy source for Rhizobium meliloti as well as an osmoprotectant.…”

“…They promote salinity tolerance by employing various mechanisms, such as enhancing nutrient uptake, especially phosphorus (P) nutrition (Giri et al 2002), producing plant growth hormones, improving rhizospheric condition of the soil (Linderman 1994), altering the physiological and biochemical properties of the host plants (Grant et al 2001) and improving host physiological processes (Pfetffer and Bloss 1988). In addition, AMF colonization can reverse the effect of salinity on potassium (K) and Na + nutrition by enhancing K + absorption under saline conditions (Ruiz-Lozano et al 1996;Giri et al 2002;Sharifi et al 2007) while preventing Na translocation to shoot tissues. These benefits of AMF have prompted it to be a suitable candidate for bio-amelioration of saline soils.…”

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is cultivated in arid and semi-arid regions where salinity is one of the main limiting factors for its production. Thus, this experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), Glomus mosseae, alfalfa rhizobia Sinorhizobium meliloti (R) seed inoculation in the development of salinity tolerance of different alfalfa cultivars (Rehnani, Pioneer and Bami) under a variety of salinity levels. The results revealed that under non-stress condition, root mycorrhizal infection, nodulation (the number and weight of nodules per plant), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and magnesium (Mg) contents of the root and shoot, the value of the K/ Na ratio, protein [calculated from the nitrogen (N) content] and proline contents of the shoot and the alfalfa yield were found to be the highest while Na contents of the root and shoot were seen to be the lowest when seeds were double inoculated followed by mycorrhizae, rhizobium and control treatments, respectively. Similarly, under salinity condition, the greatest amounts of mycorrhizal infection, nodulation, root and shoot P contents, the value of K/Na ratio, the shoot proline content and the root Ca content were enhanced with the least amount of leaf Na content related to the cases of seeds which were double inoculated, followed by mycorrhizae, rhizobium and control treatments respectively. The results suggested that inoculation of alfalfa seed with AMF or R, especially double inoculation, causes a considerable increase in alfalfa yield under both saline and non-saline conditions by increasing colonization, nodulation and nutrient uptake.

“…K + play a key role in plant water stress tolerance and has been found to be the cationic solute responsible for stomata movements in response to changes in bulk leaf water status [66]. There are several reports of lower Na + concentrations in plants inoculated with PGPR under salinity conditions [63,67,68].…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate eight soybean genotypes to salinity stress. Plants were grown in sand culture in a greenhouse experiment and irrigated with one-tenth strength modified Hoagland nutrient solution with or without 50 mM NaCl. The experimental design was split plot, arranged in randomized completely block design with three replications. Main plot factor was salt stress level (0 and 50 mM NaCl) and sub-plot factor was soybean genotypes (Giza21, Giza22, Giza35, Giza82, Giza83, Giza111, Clark, and Crawford). After four weeks from sowing, the whole plants were collected. The results indicated that salinity induced significant decrease in plant growth of all soybean genotypes, since, salt stress decreased shoot height, whole plant, shoot and root fresh and dry weight and leaf area of all soybean genotypes. However, salt stress increased shoot/root ratio on fresh and dry weight basis, plant moisture content and electrolyte leakage of all soybean genotypes. Chlorophyll content index no significantly decreased with salt stress. Salt stress increased shoot and root Na + content while decreased K + content and K + /Na + ratio of shoot and root for all soybean genotypes. The obtained results showed that the eight soybean genotypes responded differently to salt stress. It seems that Giza82 was more tolerant and Clark was more sensitive to salinity than other genotypes. These genotypes can be arranged with respect to tolerance to salinity in the order: Giza82 > Giza35 > Giza21 > Giza22 > Giza111 > Crawford > Giza83 > Clark.
