e0“The effect of seed inoculation by Mycorrhiza and different levels of phosphorus fertilizer on growth and yield of sunflower (Azargol cultivar) was studied in experiment farm of Islamic Azad University, Pars Abad Moghan Branch during 2010 growing season”
e5“application of mycorrhiza in present of 50% P recommended had an appropriate performance and could increase seed yield and oil production to an acceptable level”
e6“it could be considered as a suitable substitute for chemical phosphorus fertilizer in organic agricultural systems”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Mycorrhiza-inoculated sunflower had higher head diameter, number of seeds per head and seed yield than non-inoculated plants.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhiza-inoculated sunflower had higher oil yield than non-inoculated plants.
- Intervention effect In non-inoculated sunflower, head diameter, number of seeds per head and 1000 seed weight increased with P above 75% of the recommended rate.
- Intervention effect In non-inoculated sunflower, biological yield, seed yield and oil yield increased with P above 75% of the recommended rate.
- Intervention effect Sunflower yield components showed no significant difference between 75% and 100% of the recommended P rate.
- Association The positive effect of mycorrhizal inoculation on sunflower decreased as P levels increased.
- Association Percent root colonization by mycorrhiza in sunflower decreased at higher P levels.
- Association Mycorrhiza with 50% of the recommended P could increase sunflower seed yield and oil production to an acceptable level.
