Soybean (Glycine max L.) is an economically important crop, and is cultivated worldwide, although increasingly long periods of drought have reduced the productivity of this plant. Research has shown that inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) provides a potential alternative strategy for the mitigation of drought stress. In the present study, we measured the physiological and morphological performance of two soybean cultivars in symbiosis with Rhizophagus clarus that were subjected to drought stress (DS). The soybean cultivars Anta82 and Desafio were grown in pots inoculated with R. clarus. Drought stress was imposed at the V3 development stage and maintained for 7 days. A control group, with well-irrigated plants and no AMF, was established simultaneously in the greenhouse. The mycorrhizal colonization rate, and the physiological, morphological, and nutritional traits of the plants were recorded at days 3 and 7 after drought stress conditions were implemented. The Anta82 cultivar presented the highest percentage of AMF colonization, and N and K in the leaves, whereas the DS group of the Desafio cultivar had the highest water potential and water use efficiency, and the DS + AMF group had thermal dissipation that permitted higher values of Fv/Fm, A, and plant height. The results of the principal components analysis demonstrated that both cultivars inoculated with AMF performed similarly under DS to the well-watered plants. These findings indicate that AMF permitted the plant to reduce the impairment of growth and physiological traits caused by drought conditions.
RESUMOA soja é fundamental para o progresso do agronegócio, porém sua produtividade pode ser afetada pelas mudanças climáticas. Assim, alternativas que aumentem o rendimento das plantas em condições adversas são fundamentais, e os fungos micorrízicos arbusculares (FMA) destacam-se, pois, associam-se as raízes das plantas aumentando a absorção de água e nutrientes. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a produtividade de plantas de soja a campo experimental em associação com o FMA Rhizophagus clarus sob condição de sistema irrigado e não irrigado. Ao final, avaliou-se parâmetros agronômicos e de simbiose com o FMA. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados com parcelas subdivididas, as médias obtidas foram submetidas à análise de variância e comparadas pelo teste Tukey (5%), utilizando software SISVAR. Plantas de soja quando associadas com FMA e cultivadas em condição não irrigada, obtiveram maior produtividade do que plantas no sistema irrigado, além de peso de 1000 grãos. Desta forma, conclui-se que a inoculação beneficia a produtividade da soja em condições de sistema não irrigado. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: produtividade de grãos, micorriza, colonização. ABSTRACTSoybeans are key to agribusiness progress, but their production can be affected by climate change. Thus, alternatives that increase the yield of the plants under adverse conditions are fundamental, and the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (FMA) stand out. Therefore, they associate the roots of the plants, increasing the absorption of water and nutrients. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate soybean yield in the field experiment in association with FMA Rhizophagus clarus under conditions of irrigated and nonirrigated system. In the end, agronomic and symbiosis parameters were evaluated with FMA. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with subdivided plots, the means obtained were submitted to analysis of variance and compared by the Tukey test (5%), using SISVAR software. Soybean plants when associated with FMA and cultivated in non-irrigated conditions, obtained higher productivity than plants in the irrigated system and weight of 1000 grains. In this way, it is concluded that inoculation benefits soybean yield under non-irrigated system conditions.
The objective of this study was to verify the physiological behavior and development of maize plants under hydric deficit inoculated with the AMF Rhizophagus clarus and Claroideoglomus etunicatum and the commercial inoculant ROOTELLA BR in nonsterilized soil as a strategy to mitigate the effects of drought in the crop. Corn seeds were grown and inoculated with R. clarus, C. etunicatum and the commercial inoculant ROOTELLA BR separately at sowing. The plants were grown in a greenhouse and submitted to water deficit in stage V3, keeping the pots at 20% field capacity for 10 days. The first analyses were performed, followed by reirrigation for 2 days, and the analyses were performed again. The experiment was a double factorial, with 2 water treatments (irrigated and water deficit) × 4 inoculation treatments (control, ROOTELLA BR, R. clarus, C. etunicatum) × 5 replicates per treatment, totaling 40 vessels. The results indicate that the plants were able to recover favorably according to the physiological data presented. It is noted that in inoculated plants, there was no damage to the photosynthetic apparatus. These data demonstrate that AMF contribute greatly to better plant recovery after a dry period and a new irrigation period. Inoculation with AMF favors postwater stress recovery in plants.
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is an economically important crop worldwide. However, increasingly long periods of drought have reduced the productivity of this crop. Studies have shown that inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) provides a potential alternative strategy for mitigating drought. In the present study, we measured the physiological and morphological performance of two soybean cultivars under drought in symbiosis with Rhizophagus clarus. Soybean plants Anta82 and Desafio, were grown in pots previously inoculated with R. clarus. Water deficit (WD) was imposed at the V3 development stage and maintained for 7 days. A control group was performed in parallel with well-irrigated plants in the absence of R. clarus in a greenhouse. Three and seven days after the WD imposition the analysis were performed. Cultivar Anta82 showed a higher percentage of colonization, N and K leaf content, whereas Desafio, showed higher water potential, water-use efficiency under WD, and thermal dissipation that allowed higher values for Fv/Fm, A, and PH under WD+AMF. The Principal Components Analysis results were able to demonstrate that both cultivars in water deficit with AMF colonization clustered together with well-watered plants. These findings suggest that AMF had an effect on plants in order to reduce drought physiological impairment.
