e1“Field experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of Rhizobium (R), arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation individually and in combination, on chlorophyll, soluble proteins, sugars, and indole acetic acid (IAA) contents, and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity of faba bean plant”
e2“The highest content of chlorophyll, protein, soluble and insoluble sugars was observed with a combined R+AMF inoculant throughout the different stages of faba bean growth irrigated either with Nile water or wastewater”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation, alone or with R, was more efficient in inducing IAA than R inoculation in faba bean.
- Intervention effect R inoculation was superior only in faba bean plants irrigated with Nile water at the vegetative stage and with wastewater at the fruiting stage.
- Intervention effect Chlorophyll and soluble protein were reduced in faba bean irrigated with wastewater compared with Nile water.
- Intervention effect Polyphenol oxidase activity of faba bean was higher under wastewater irrigation than under Nile water irrigation.
- Observation Mycorrhizal colonization and root nodulation indicated that AMF and R tolerate heavy metal polluted water in faba bean.
- Recommendation Co-inoculation with R+AMF could be used to alleviate heavy metal toxicity in plants and revegetate contaminated soils (author suggestion).
- Observation Heavy metals Mn and Cr were higher than acceptable limits in the wastewater used for irrigation.
