“…Researchers such as [1] demonstrated these benefits using soybeans against drought stress when inoculating them with AMF and Bradyrhizobium japonicum. Other authors such as (2022) [2] mentioned that the agroecological approach favors the maintenance and balance of microorganisms in the rhizosphere that interact with the host plants [3], in addition to inducing root protection schemes against various pathogens [4]. The interactions between plants and AMF contribute to agricultural sustainability [5], and as a result, benefits are derived and plant survival increases, especially in limiting agroecological conditions [6,7].…”

The lulo plant (Solanum quitoense Lamarck) is native to South America. In Mexico, this species shows potential for the conversion of agroecosystems. It is used as food and pharmaceutical sources for metabolites. However, there are few papers related to how this species can grow under conditions outside of the Andean countries (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru). The objective of this research was to evaluate the development of lulo under cloud forest conditions and the effect of inoculating the plant with mycorrhizae (Funneliformis mosseae (T. H. Nicolson and Gerd.) C. Walker and A. Schüssler, and Entrophospora colombiana Spain and N. C. Schenck) and diammonium phosphate (DAP: NPK 18-46-00) fertilization. The plant growth, leaf area, mycorrhizal colonization, and leaf mineral content were evaluated from transplant to fruit formation. The experiment was conducted under field conditions in volcanic soils (clayey Vertisol) in a cloud forest. The inoculation of E. colombiana was 86.19% of the colonization, and the content of N, K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Cu, Zn, and Fe in the leaves was the higher in these plants. The highest P content was obtained from the DAP treatment and the height of the plant was 11.8% and 12.5% in the treatments using DAP and E. colombiana, respectively. The plant growth was significantly higher in the plants inoculated with E. colombiana followed by DAP. The plants inoculated with F. mosseae registered lower values than the control. Lulo plants grow in the climate and soils of volcanic origin of the cloud forest. The results showed that AMF colonization was beneficial and outperformed the native strains. The results are new for the introduced lulo plants in Mexico and can help reduce the learning path for commercial cultivation.

“…In this context, there is evidence of the use of various organic fertilizers processed by fermentation techniques and of some soil microorganisms that favor plant and reproductive development of various crops [3,4]. In both cases, the applications of synthetic chemical fertilizers are reduced, the balance of microorganisms in the rhizosphere is favored [5], in general, they contribute to agricultural sustainability [6] and the ecosystems functioning [7]. Some soil microorganisms, such as endomycorrhizal fungi and nitrogen-fixing bacteria, have been shown to induce growth and yield increases in various crops, such as maize and beans [8].…”

The “tomato” Lycopersicon esculentum M (Solanaceae) is a vegetable with a high demand for consumption. For its production, plant nutrition is traditionally based on agrochemicals. Currently, nutrition alternatives are being sought based on various soil microorganisms that in combination with organic amendments, such as poultry manure, can improve the physical, chemical and biological properties of the rhizosphere. In this study, the effect of the application of two beneficial microorganisms, Rhizophagus intraradices and/or Azospirillum brasilense and poultry manure to the substrate in L. esculentum M was evaluated. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse and the plants were established in bags with the following treatments: 1. control, 2. R. intraradices, 3. A. brasilense, 4. R. intraradices + A. brasilense. Morphological and physiological yield components were recorded 84 days after transplanting. Plant height, stem thickness, number of leaves, flower bud, flowers and dry biomass of leaf, stem and root, weight of fruits were analyzed statistically and differences between treatments were compared according to Tukey (p ≤ 0.05). In conclusion, the results indicate that L. esculentum M. in the nursery with some of the microorganisms individually and in co-inoculation, favored the growth and dry matter allocation of the morphological and physiological components of the yield compared to the control. The number and weight of fruits increased with co-inoculation of R. intraradices and A. brasilense.

“…Coffea arabica L. se cultiva en Chiapas, México desde mediados del siglo XIX y se ha adaptado a la región del Soconusco (Montoya y Toledo, 2020); se ha convertido en un cultivo estratégico por su importancia social y económica y ha contribuido a la preservación de la biodiversidad mediante su asociación con árboles de sombra en sistemas agroforestales (Reyes et al, 2022). En la actualidad se ha incrementado el número de agricultores que producen café orgánico (Reyes et al, 2020) y este enfoque agroecológico favorece el mantenimiento, equilibrio e interacción de los microorganismos de la rizósfera con las plantas hospedantes (Baldi, 2021). Además de inducir protección en las raíces frente a diversos patógenos (Bhale et al, 2018), las interacciones entre plantas y hongos contribuyen a la sostenibilidad agrícola (Devi et al, 2021) y al funcionamiento de los ecosistemas (Bar-On et al, 2018).…”

El cafeto (Coffea arabica L.) es una especie de importancia económica mundial y su producción se basa en la aplicación de insumos químicos de origen sintético. El aumento en la preferencia del consumo de café orgánico ha utilizado varias alternativas para la nutrición del cultivo, como los hongos endomicorrízicos. El cafeto presenta alto grado de micotrofia; sin embargo, su efectividad es diferencial al inducir el crecimiento. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el efecto de hongos endomicorrízicos de diferente origen geográfico en el crecimiento de Coffea arabica L. cv Catimor y en el contenido de fosforo en tejido vegetal. Las semillas fueron germinadas en charolas y a las dos semanas fueron biofertilizadas y trasplantadas a suelo andosol mólico en bolsas de plástico con los aislamientos denominados Limón, Vainilla, Izapa, Caracoles y San Rafael, además de Rhizophagus intraradices como referencia, y un testigo. Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar con cinco repeticiones. Se registraron variables morfológicas (altura de planta y número de hojas) y fisiológicas (biomasa seca de raíz, tallo, lámina foliar y área foliar) a los 28, 56, 84 y 112 días después del trasplante, además de colonización radical y contenido de P en tejido vegetal al final de la evaluación. Se encontraron diferencias en inducción de materia seca con los aislamientos, y todos superaron al testigo. La altura de planta presentó aumento más uniforme con los aislamientos. La biomasa seca se incrementó desde el primer muestreo en las variables tallo y lámina foliar y a partir del segundo en raíz. Los valores de las variables morfológicas y fisiológicas se expresaron diferencialmente en relación con el tiempo, y la inducción del crecimiento fue influenciada por los aislamientos. El contenido de fósforo se incrementó en todas las plantas colonizadas en comparación al testigo.
