e0“A field experiment was conducted in the 1994/95 and 1995/96 growing seasons to investigate the effects of mycorrhizal ino culation and phosphorus application on infection, symbiotic activity and yield of faba bean ( Vicia faba L.) grown under two watering regimes”
e1“Water stress significantly decreased nodule number, flower set, pod production and seed yield in both seasons”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Water stress significantly decreased seed yield of faba bean.
- Association Substantial mycorrhizal infection of faba bean occurred at low P concentration under both well-watered and dry soil conditions.
- Association At high soil P, mycorrhizal infection of faba bean was not suppressed in the dry watering regime, unlike in the well-watered treatment.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly increased nodule number, nodule dry weight and flower set of faba bean compared with non-mycorrhizal plants.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly increased pod production and seed yield of faba bean compared with non-mycorrhizal plants.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus application alone had no significant effect on faba bean nodulation, infection, flowering, pod production or seed yield.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus application suppressed the stimulation of faba bean symbiotic activity and seed yield by mycorrhizal inoculation.
