“The results showed that the single arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation treatment significantly enhanced soybean physiology, growth, and yield including relative water content (85.87%), nitrate reductase activity (8.98 µmol NO2-g BS-1 hour-1), stomatal density (775.16 mm), proline (17.76 µmol proline g BS-1), and ascorbate peroxidase (0.0068 U/min/mg).”
