Detection of Species Diversity of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (Amf) Classic and Molecular Methods From the Melon (Cucumis Melo L.) Plants in Van and Its Districts
(Academic Journals, 2011) Savur, Orcun Burak; Demir, Semra
Arbuscular-mycorhizal fungi (AMF) from melon plants grown in Van province, were studied by nested-PCR method to establish colonization ratio of related fungi in plants and to detect the fungi at species level. From 10 different locations, a total of 100 soil samples were taken from rhizosphere area of melon plants. It was also determined that 52% of these plants were colonized by arbuscular-mycorhizal fungi and were able to establish symbiotic relationship in variable ranges (4.5 to 37.8%) Glomus intraradices and Glomus mosseae were two identified AMF.
Responses of Some Different Pepper (Capsicum Annuum L.) Genotypes To Inoculation With Two Different Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2007) Sensoy, Suat; Demir, Semra; Turkmen, Onder; Erdinc, Ceknas; Savur, Orcun Burak
Eight different pepper genotypes inoculated by two different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) [Glomus intraradices (Gi) and Gigaspora margarita (Gm)] in a growth chamber experiment under normal seedling growing conditions were evaluated for seedling traits, colonization and relative mycorrhizal dependency (RMD). In general, inoculated plants had greater dry weights compared to non-inoculated plants. Five cultivars responded positively to inoculation with AM fungi and three responded negatively. A great variation in mycorrhizal colonization dependency was observed among the pepper genotypes, with the N52 genotype showing the highest RMD and the Karaisali genotype the lowest. RMD and dry weights of pepper genotypes were inversely correlated. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
