| ABSTRACT |
The efficacy of six VAM species, Acaulospora morrowae Spain & Schenck, Gigaspora margarita Becker & Hall, Glomus fasciculatum (Thaxt. Sensu. Gerd.) Gerd. & Trappe, G. macrocarpum Tul. & Tul. Scutellospora calospora (Nicol. & Gerd.) Walker & Sanders, and Sclerocystis rubiformis Gerd. & Trappe, collected from rhizosphere soils of Ziziphus xylopyrus, was evaluated for enhancement of NR, GS, GDH, PRO, PPO activities and protein, phenolic, and catechin contents in this fruit tree. Culturing was done under glass house conditions and analyses were performed 180 days after inoculation. All fungi showed beneficial effects, with S. calospora being the most promoting of all biochemical parameters. |
