Evaluation of salicylic acid and mycorrhiza on some characteristics of cumin
Journal Title: Journal of Research in Ecology - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The presence of mycorrhiza in rhizosphere provides with an advantageous and interactive symbiosis relationship between a higher plant root and a nonpathogenic fungus. Through receiving energetic carbon resources from plant, fungus facilitates the uptake of many inorganic nutrients such as phosphorus, zinc, molybdenum, copper and iron for it. Application of salicylic acid significantly increased growth parameters, photosynthetic pigments and proline content and decreased lipid peroxidation in sweet basil under salinity stress condition. The field experiment was laid out in factorial with randomized complete block design with three replications. Treatments included salicylic acid at 25, 50 and 100 ppm, and mycorrhiza such as Glomus mosseae and Glomus etunicatum along with a control for each. Analysis of variance showed that the effect of salicylic acid and mycorrhiza on grain yield, number of seeds per umbel, umbel number in plant and plant height were significant. The maximum of an characteristics were obtained in 50 ppm salicylic acid treatment. The minimum values were obtained in control. Similarly, the maximum of all characteristics were obtained in the samples treated with Glomus mosseae. The minimum values in all characteristics were obtained in control
