Summary: Iron (Fe) is a crucial micronutrient for plant growth and productivity, but its bioavailability can be limited in calcareous soils, leading to Fe deficiency symptoms. Fe fertilization is the most common approach in agriculture
Summary: This study investigates the potential of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi to enhance the tolerance of two Cucurbitaceae species, cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and zucchini squash (Cucurbita pepo L.), to bicarbonate stress in irrigation water.
Summary: The aim of this study was to assess whether arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) inoculation using a biofertilizer containing clays, leek root pieces, and Glomus intraradices spores could enhance the alkalinity tolerance of two cucumber genotypes
