“…In the present study, we aimed to intercrop a selected efficient mycorrhizal symbiont, both with and without field inoculation of farm-produced AMF, to increase the abundance of AMF in lowland rice soil. For this, we selected vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides L.), which has high economic value [39], to intercrop with lowland rice due to its highly mycorrhizal potential [40] and ability to withstand water-logged conditions [41]. We expect vetiver grass to be compatible with the agronomic practices of rice farming since both plants belong to the same family, the Poaceae [42].…”

In this study, a field experiment was conducted to evaluate the growth and yield responses of Sri Lankan lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) with the application of beneficial Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculum and intercropping with highly mycorrhizal-dependent vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides L.) under two different soil nutrient management systems (NMSs): conventional/chemical (CNMS) and organic (ONMS). The experiment was designed as a split plot with three blocks. Each CNMS and ONMS experiment included an untreated control (T0) and three treatments—AMF inoculation (T1), vetiver intercropping (T2), and the combination of AMF and vetiver (T3). According to the results, the colonization of rice roots with AMF was not affected significantly by the treatments and ranged from 0–15.8%. The effect was very low or absent in the early stage and then higher in the later stages of the rice plant. Furthermore, plant growth was not significantly different between the two NMSs, although grain yield was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in ONMS than for the respective controls (T0), with the order T1 (0.45 kg/m2) > T2 (0.42 kg/m2) > T3 (0.41 kg/m2) in CNMS and T2 (0.44 kg/m2) > T1 (0.41 kg/m2) > T3 (0.40 kg/m2), thus suggesting the utilization of AMF and vetiver in a lowland rice farming system is beneficial.

Soil pollution is a significant environmental issue with various causes and consequences. Many industrialized and non-industrialized countries are faced with economic and ecological problems due to toxic element contaminations in soil environments. Especially, soils contaminated with toxic metals pose a major environmental and human health problem that needs an effective and affordable technological solution. Phytoremediation is a process that uses plants to clean up contaminated soil, water, or air. It is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for mitigating pollution and is often used in situations where traditional cleanup methods are impractical or too expensive. Vetiver grass is a type of perennial grass native to India. It is widely cultivated for various purposes and has several valuable characteristics such as erosion control and soil improvement. In this study, the tolerance of vetiver grass at phytoremediation of boron polluted soil was examined. For this purpose, to determine the tolerance of the vetiver plant to boron, B from H3BO3 was applied to the soil at concentrations of 0, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 200, 300, 400 mg B/kg. The results showed that the increase in boron concentration applied to the soil negatively affected plant growth and significant losses in plant height and weight and no growth was observed in plants above 40 mg/kg boron concentration.
