Delivery of Inoculum of Rhizophagus irregularis via Seed Coating in Combination...
Ma, Ying; Látr, Aleš; Rocha, Inês; Freitas, Helena; Vosátka, Miroslav; Oliveira, Rui S.Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.Walp) is an important legume grown primarily in semi-arid area. Its production is generally inhibited by various abiotic and biotic stresses. The use of beneficial microorganisms (e.g., plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)) can enhance agricultural production, as these microorganisms can improve soil fertility and plant tolerance to environmen...
Seed Coating with Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi for Improved Field Production of...
Rocha, Inês; Duarte, Isabel; Ma, Ying; Souza-Alonso, Pablo; Látr, Aleš; Vosátka, Miroslav; Freitas, Helena; Oliveira, Rui S.Although arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are known to promote growth and yield of agricultural crops, inoculation methods for e ective scaling up from greenhouse to the field are still underexplored. The application of single or mixed beneficial AM fungal isolates is hindered by the lack of experimental reproducibility of findings at di erent scales and the cost-e ectivity of inoculation methods. Seed coating...

Effectiveness of seed coating with microbial inoculants as na alternative to ag...
Rocha, Inês; Látr, Aleš; Vosátka, Miroslav; Freitas, Helena; Oliveira, Rui S.Intensive agriculture is highly dependent on agrochemicals and in order to increase crop production, environment integrity is disturbed with biodiversity loss, emergence of pathogens, and soil and water resources negatively affected. The abuse of agrochemicals in agriculture constitutes a major worldwide problem as it does compromise environment and public health. Reducing the use of chemical fertilisers with i...
