Abstract

With arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus as materials,the effect of watermelon single cropping,intercropping system of pepper together with watermelon crops inoculating arbuscular mycorrhizal(AM)fungus on plant growth and defence enzymes activity of the continual watermelon in protection field conditions were studied,in order to find a new way to overcome continuous cropping obstacles.The results showed that both intercropping,inoculating AM fungus and intercropping with inoculated AM fungus had positive effect on watermelon crops,which increased the plant height,fresh weight of aboveground part,stem diameter,the biggest leaf area and single watermelon weight.And the SOD activity,POD activity,CAT activity in roots and leaves of watermelon crops obviously rose,while intercropping with inoculated AM fungus had the best effect.So we concluded that the intercropping system of pepper together with watermelon crops and inoculating AM fungus could promote the growth,improve activity of defence enzymes,and then alleviated continuous cropping obstacles of watermelon.
