“…Some reports indicate that the interactions of Bch and different microorganisms can be used to improve nutrient absorption and plant productivity through different mechanisms [55]. It has also been reported that the use of silicon and mycorrhizal fungi will reduce the absorption of toxic sodium ions, improve the conditions of the rhizosphere, increase the absorption of nutrients and regulate plant metabolic processes [17]. Therefore, according to the results of this research, SiFA in combination with other ameliorating resources increased the absorption of micronutrient elements.…”

“…So that in this research, the RWC and ion leakage was affected by different varieties of maize. On the other hand, the use of silicon together with mycorrhizal fungi improves plant growth and reduces the negative effects of salinity stress by reducing sodium absorption and regulating plant physiological processes [17]. It has been reported that the use of Bch affects the absorption of nutrients and water and causes an increase in RWC and a decrease in ion leakage under salinity stress conditions .…”

“…The reduction of compatible osmolytes such as soluble sugars and proline in the combination use of ameliorating resources is a con rmation of this claim. The use of these compounds improves the plant's metabolic activity by reducing sodium absorption and regulating physiological processes [17]. In fact, such compounds alleviate the negative effects of salinity stress and reduce the concentration of compatible osmolytes in plant tissues [2].…”

“…Also, the better absorption of nutrients causes carbon dioxide xation, more photosynthesis and protection of chloroplast in environmental stress conditions [6]. The increase of chlorophyll content by means of ameliorating resources such as Bch, mycorrhizal fungi and silicon has been reported by other researchers [14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

In the studies that have been conducted on resources that increase tolerance to salt stress, their individual use has often been considered. There is little evidence of their synergistic effects, especially for plants grown in saline soil conditions. In this research, a factorial experiment was conducted in the randomized complete block design in 2020 and 2021. The rst factor was 3 maize varieties including 704, 604 and 370 and the second factor was resources ameliorating the adverse effcts of salinity including control, single, dual and combined use of biochar (Bch), arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) and silicon foliar application (SiFA). The results showed that leaves sodium concentration in the combined treatment of Bch + AMF + SiFA decreased by 13% compared to the control. In 704 the concentration of potassium and nitrogen in the combination of Bch + AMF + SiFA respectively showed an increase of 25 and 22% compared to the control. Also, dual consumption of ameliorating resources caused an increase in leaf iron, zinc, copper and manganese. Combined use of ameliorating resources decreased ion leakage and increased the relative water content and the photosynthetic pigments. In 604 and 370, the grain yield was respectively increased by 10 and 18% in the combination of Bch + AMF + SiFA compared to the control. Considering the positive effect of ameliorating resources in improving seed yield and seed oil percentage, the combination of biochar + mycorrhiza + silicon can be recommended under salt stress.
