“…Table 2 The conducted studies also showed that regardless of the soil type, the use of the mycorrhizal vaccine significantly increased the content of N-NO 3 and Mg in the soil (Tables 2 and 6). This can be accounted for by the positive impact of mycorrhizae on the activity of proteases in the soil (Zydlik et al, 2016). An increase of the dehydrogenases activity in the soil after using of a mycorrhizal vaccine was also recorded by Arriagada et al (2012).…”

Research on the impact of the mycorrhization on the content of selected macroelements (N, P, K and Mg) present in the soil and in the leaves of the highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) cultivar 'Bluecrop' was carried out between 2009 and 2014. Plants were grown in the replanted soil (after 30 years of blueberry cultivation) and in the soil not used for blueberry cultivation (virgin soil). The mycorrhizal vaccine (mixture Vaccinium myrtillus L., V. vitis-idaea L. and Arctostaphylos uva-ursi L.) was used once when the plants were planted permanently. A varied effect of the use of mycorrhizal vaccine on the chemical composition of soil and plants was demonstrated. The application of this treatment significantly decreased the content of ammonium (N-NH 4), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) in the soil and increased nitrate (N-NO 3) and magnesium (Mg) content in relation to the control treatment (without the mycorrhizal vaccine). Within the examined soils-soil after replantation as well as virgin soil-a significant effect of mycorrhizae on the increase of nitrogen (N), K and Mg content in blueberry leaves was demonstrated.

“…The replanted soil used in the study was characterised by poorer biological parameters when compared to virgin soil: less activity of soil enzymes (proteases and dehydrogenases), smaller numbers of proteolytic bacteria and significantly lower respiratory activity (Zydlik et al, 2016).…”

“…Before deciding to use a commercially available mycorrhizal vaccine for heather plants, it is important to ensure that the soil is properly prepared. According to the research conducted by Zydlik et al owing to the use of a mycorrhizal vaccine, it is possible, to a certain extent, to mitigate the adverse effect of pH on the biochemical properties of soil and plant yielding [13]. According to many authors, a positive effect of mycorrhiza on the growth, development and nutrition of heather plants growing on soils with inadequate pH and deficient basic nutrients was observed [14].…”

Due to the pro-health properties of highbush blueberry fruit, the interest in cultivation of this species has been growing significantly, which is evidenced by the current increase in world fruit production. Therefore, the aim of our review study is to present the impact of soil and climatic conditions and cultivation methods of Vaccinium corymbosum L. on fruit yield and quality in Central and Eastern Europe. In this region, one of the most important abiotic factors determining the yield level is the minimum temperature of the winter period and short-term increases in temperature, which are conducive to the damage to flower buds. Another factor determining the success of cultivation is soil. In addition, highbush blueberry has specific soil requirements, which result from its characteristic root structure. The adverse impact of soil factors can be mitigated to a certain extent by the use of mycorrhizal fungi. In this chapter, besides the cultivation conditions of V. corymbosum, the pro-health properties of fruits resulting from the presence of bioactive compounds such as polyphenolic compounds, flavonoids, especially anthocyanins, will be presented. Besides, factors, such as environmental conditions, degree of ripeness and variety, affect the content of bioactive substances.

“…According to several authors who have been involved in applied research and the development of cultivated blueberries; i.e., [1][2][3][4]; the system for blueberry cultivation includes fertilization during the growing season, in addition to other technological operations (such as soil preparation, planting, plantation maintenance, plant protection, harvesting, postharvest processing, and plant culling, i.e., rejuvenation pruning). This paper is dedicated to the precision fertilization of cultivated blueberry plantations which have been established on depleted milled peat fields.…”

Granulometric Parameters of Solid Blueberry Fertilizers and Their Suitability for Precision Fertilization

et al. 2021

For precise fertilization of blueberry plants, it is technologically the easiest and most suitable option to use a volumetric filling, for which it can be presumed that it is possible to precisely dose the fertilizer for each plant by grams. For setting up a volumetric filler, it is necessary to know parameters such as the size of the fertilizer particles and their bulk density. The aim of this research is to determine the granulometric parameters and their effect, which is done by measuring up three different fertilizers (SQM Qrop K, Memon Siforga, Substral): width, height, and length of 100 randomly selected fertilizer particles as well as the volumes and weights of 100 particles in 10 repetitions. According to the measurements, the average diameters of fertilizer particles were found as well as the average mass, volumes, and bulk density. A Mahr Digital Caliper 16EWRi 0–150 mm was used to measure the diameters of the fertilizer granules. A Yxlon FF35 computer tomograph was used to accurately scan particles. The analytical scale, Kern ABJ 220-4NM, was used to determine mass. The volumes were measured, using measuring glasses, with one having a maximum volume of 10 mL in 0.2 mL increments and another having a maximum volume of 100 mL in 1 mL increments. Descriptive statistics analysis was performed in Microsoft Excel. It turned out that the average diameters (3.68 vs. 3.64 vs. 4.29 mm) and bulk densities (0.928 vs. 0.631 vs. 0.824 g cm−3) of the three fertilizers differed far from each other, meaning that the given volume could be filled with different amounts of fertilizer. Equations between mass and weight were formed according to the measurements. As a result, it was found that a volumetric filler can be used for fertilizing blueberry plants precisely, but it demands adjusting the filler each time in the situation, which is defined by the variety of blueberry plants: their age, size, and health.
