Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Increased wheat cultivation decreased the percentage of mycorrhizal infection in wheat.
- Association Increased cultivation reduced spore numbers of Glomus fasciculatus.
- Association Mean numbers of Glomus mosseae spores increased with continued wheat production.
- Intervention effect Stomatal conductance was higher in mycorrhizal than in non-mycorrhizal wheat plants in both wet and dry treatments.
- Intervention effect Stomatal closure in mycorrhizal wheat occurred at lower leaf water potentials and after greater desiccation than in non-mycorrhizal plants.
- Observation Some leaves of Glomus mosseae-infected wheat showed no stomatal response to drought and kept transpiring at a leaf water potential as low as -4.1 MPa.
- Association Leaf osmotic adjustment was greatest in Glomus fasciculatus-infected wheat.
- Intervention effect Non-mycorrhizal and Glomus fasciculatus-infected wheat had equal dry weights in both wet and dry conditions.
- Intervention effect Infection by Glomus fasciculatus appeared to increase wheat drought tolerance.
- Intervention effect Infection by Glomus mosseae did not increase wheat drought tolerance.
