Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect The same combination reduced osmotic activity, electrolyte leakage and peroxide content.
- Intervention effect Silicon with either fungus performed similarly for most traits and better than a single fungus alone.
- Intervention effect Combined AMF and silicon enhanced antioxidant efficiency under salinity stress.
