Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation with 120 kg P fertilizer increased onion fresh and dry weights.
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation with phosphorus fertilizer increased P concentration in onion roots, shoots and bulbs.
- Observation AMF increased P bioavailability in the onion rhizosphere.
- Observation AMF significantly enhanced N utilization by inoculated onion.
