Abstract
Effects of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus,Glomus versiforme(Karsten) Berch,on mineral nutritional contents in leaves of red tangerine(Citrus tangerine Hort.ex Tanaka) seedlings exposed to normal watering and water stress were studied under the condition of potted culture of and greenhouse.The results obtained from the present experiment showed that inoculation with Glomus versiforme notably increased the P,K and Fe contents in leaves of tangerine subjected to normal watering and water stress but did not affected the Cu,Ca and Mn contents in leaves.Colonization by Glomus versiforme significantly enhanced both the N and Zn contents of well-watered leaves and the Mg content of water stressed leaves.The overall results from the experiment suggest that higher P,K and Fe contents in leaves of mycorrhizal plants will help host plants to enhance their drought resistance.
