How to apply mycorrhizal fungi in fruit growing – BioFruitNet Practice Abstract
Organic fruit growing often faces challenges like lack of water or nutrient availability, which in turn can have significant adverse effects on the health of the fruit tree and harvest. Application of mycorrhizal fungi products to the soil during fruit growing can enable plants to absorb water and nutrients from the soil better. Trees whose […]
Agroecological Service Crops Drive Plant Mycorrhization in Organic Horticultural Systems
Mycorrhizal symbiosis represents a valuable tool for increasing plant nutrient uptake, affecting system biodiversity, ecosystem services and productivity. Introduction of agroecological service crops (ASCs) in cropping systems may determine changes in weed community, that can affect the development of the mycorrhizal mycelial network in the rhizosphere, favoring or depressing the cash crop mycorrhization. Two no-till […]
