Utilization of inoculum of AM fungi produced on-farm increases the yield of Solanum lycopersicum: A summary of 7 years of field trials on a conventional vegetable farm with high soil phosphorus

Abstract: a b s t r a c tAdding arbuscular mycorrhizal [AM] fungus inoculum to potting media enables vegetable farmers to better take advantage of the AM symbiosis. On-farm production of AM fungus inoculum is a viable alternative to commercially-available inocula. We conducted a seven year experiment at a conventional vegetable farm in southeastern Pennsylvania with high soil available P typical of the Mid-Atlantic region of the USA (210 mg kg −1 soil). Seedlings of three to seven cultivars of Solanum lycopersicum L. we… Show more

“…On-farm biopurification systems [32] or farm management practices such as biofertilization [33] are increasingly studied to help minimize agricultural contamination and for sustainable production. Several toxic compounds (pesticides and other substances) from polluted wastewater sources generated in the farmyard can affect the associated microbiomes [34].…”

“…The use of prepared on-farm AMF inoculum can increase plant yield with minimal change in farm management even in a high P soil [33]. Biomixtures (biobed organic substrate, active part of biopurification systems) were also bioaugmented with degrading ligninolytic fungi in a composition of 50:25:25 (lignocellulosic substrate:humic component:soil), but the formulation will depend on the target pesticide to obtain their optimal performance [32].…”

AMF hyphae can therefore contribute to plantlet growth (Wicaksono et al 2018;Toprak, 2020;Chenchouni et al 2020), root morphogenesis (Giri et al 2003;Gamalero et al 2004;Shao et al 2018), uptake of mineral nutrients, such as phosphorus (P), nitrogen (N), and micronutrients (Gamalero et al 2004;Koch et al 2006;Machineski et al 2018;Pel et al 2018), improvement of plant photosynthetic capacity and PSII function (Chen et al 2017;Mathur et al 2018), increased disease resistance (Douds et al 2016;Jacott et al 2017), stabilisation of soil aggregates (Wright & Upadhyaya 1998;Miller & Jastrow 2000;Rillig et al 2002;Zhang et al 2016), and enhancement of environmental stress tolerance (Zhang et al 2014;Bitterlich et al 2018;Turrini et al 2018). Inoculation with AMF may therefore increase the survival and establishment of seedlings following transplantation (Machineski et al 2018) via the mycorrhizal pathway and through indirect effects of morphological and physiological changes to roots (Cavagnaro 2008;Chen et al 2014).…”

In recent years, researches on the effects of AMF on plant growth and physiological characteristics have been widely carried out and successfully contributed to the cultivation of fruit trees (Wu & Xia 2006;Machineski et al 2018), vegetables (Estrada-Luna & Davies 2003;Douds et al 2016), and other trees (Zhang et al 2016;Wicaksono et al 2018;Toprak, 2020).…”

“…Buscando uma produção sustentável, estudos que mostraram os fungos micorrízicos arbusculares (FMAs) têm aumentado à produção de várias plantas, inclusive a cultura do tomate (BAUM et al, 2015;HART et al, 2015;DOUDS Jr. et al, 2016). Com isso, pode ser uma alternativa, para aumentar a produção, sem a aplicação de insumos agrícolas.…”
