Abstract:A RBUSCULAR mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are fungi that form symbiotic relationships with the roots of higher plants. AMF can potentially be applied to enhance plant tolerance to stress and thus minimize the deleterious effects of abiotic stress. Deficiencies in phosphorus, an essential macronutrient for plants, can have negative effects. Our target was to determine the mitigation effect of local AMF inoculum on the growth and metabolic activity of Zea mays at different phosphorus levels (from 0 to 120mg P kg −1 so… Show more
