Abstract
The effect of preinoculation with the mycorrhizal fungus (Glomus fasiculatum) on growth and tolerance 0 f cowpea plants irrigated with different concentrations of waste effluents drained from fertilizers' industry was studied. The results indicated that, the relative growth rate, dry weight, nodule formation, total pigment content as' well as tolerance indices of mycorrhizal cowpea plants were significantly reduced by irrigation with different levels of the polluted water. Mycorrhizal association irnproved not only the all above parameters but also aided in overcoming the detrimental growth effect of the polluted irrigation water. The macro- and micro-element contents. (P, N, Na, Mg. Cu, Co. Zn and Fe) of cowpea plants grown on polluted soil were much higher than those of nonpolluted ones. Results emphasized that vesicular arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal symbiosis' can increase metal tolerance of cowpe.a plants. The percentage of VA mycorrhizal infection showed marked reduction with raising the pollution level. The mycorrhizal dependencies for plant dry mass decreased at 10 & 20% pollution level. but, it increased at higher pollution level (40.%).
