e1“Results showed that production and fruit quality were significantly improved in mycorrhizal plants (M‐plants) compared to non‐mycorrhizal (NM‐plants) ones, regardless of AMF treatments.”
e2“This scientific research was carried out to assess the effectiveness of two arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), Rhizophagus irregularis (Ri), R. fasciculatus (Rf), and their complex, in improving yield and quality attributes in melon variety ‘Ananas’ grown in greenhouse.”
