Influence of Vermicompost and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi on Growth of Two Strawberry Cultivars and Some Chemical Properties of Postharvest Soil
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of biofertilizers (two species of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and vermicompost) on relative yield (%), root dry weight (g pot-1) and shoot/root ratio of Kurdistan and Paros strawberry cultivars and O.M (%), EC (dS m-1), and P and K concentration of post-harvest soil. The experiment was arranged in a factorial completely randomized design with three replications. The results showed that application of Glomus intraradices and Glomus mosseae fungi significantly increased relative yield and shoot/root ratio compared to the control. Application of vermicompost significantly increased the all parameters compared to the control. Shoot relative yield and root dry weight in Kurdistan cultivar was significantly higher than the Paros.
