Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Both AMF and ECMF significantly decreased the disease index and incidence of poplar canker disease.
- Intervention effect Both AMF and ECMF increased chlorophyll content, bark soluble protein content and root activity in poplar.
- Intervention effect Both AMF and ECMF decreased the malonaldehyde (MDA) content in poplar.
- Intervention effect Both AMF and ECMF increased the free proline content in poplar.
- Intervention effect AMF significantly boosted the activity of chitinase and beta-1,3-glucanase in diseased sites of poplar.
- Intervention effect ECMF had only a small effect on the activity of chitinase and beta-1,3-glucanase in diseased sites of poplar.
- Intervention effect Both the incidence and disease index of canker disease were lower with AMF than with ECMF in poplar.
- Intervention effect Mycorrhizal fungi improved nutrient absorption and growth of poplar attacked by canker pathogen.
- Mechanism The authors explain induced secondary defence in poplar by the large amounts of chitinase and beta-1,3-glucanase produced in mycorrhizal seedlings.
