Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly increased sunflower head diameter and seeds per head.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly increased sunflower seed and oil yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing phosphorus above 75% of the recommended rate raised biological, seed and oil yields in uninoculated sunflower.
- Intervention effect The studied sunflower traits did not differ significantly between 75% and 100% of recommended phosphorus.
- Association Mycorrhizal inoculation benefit declined as phosphorus increased.
- Intervention effect Root colonization declined at higher phosphorus levels.
- Recommendation Authors recommend mycorrhiza with 50% recommended phosphorus as a substitute for chemical phosphorus fertilizer.
