Effects of Different Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Species on Growth and Development of Guava (Psidium Guajava L.) Seedling

Abstract

The grafted plants of guava are preferred for commercial planting. First, it is necessary to have seedlings and rootstock for propagation with grafting. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of some arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species on the growth and development of the guava seedlings to be used with grafting. Three different AMF species (Glomus mosseae, G. etinicatum, G. clarium) are used in this study. Pink flesh guava genotype was used as an experimental material. Mycorrhizal inoculations were applied using 500 spores per plant on the root zone of each plant. Plant measurement and parameter count (plant length, plant diameter, root length, plant and root fresh - dry weights and mycorrhizal colonization) were evaluated 12 weeks after inoculation. The results showed: plant length 74.9-83.9 cm, plant diameter 5.6-6.5 mm, root length 41.4-50.7 cm, plant fresh - dry weights 19.1-43.9 g - 7.9-17.2 g, root fresh - dry weights 9.6-27.8 g - 4.2-12.4 g and colonization rate varied between 15-85 % . The highest value in terms of investigation criteria was obtained with G. etinicatum and followed by G. mosseae and G. clarium.

Farklı Arbüsküler Mikorizal Fungus Türlerinin Guava (Psidium Guajava L.) Çöğürlerinin Büyüme ve Gelişmesi Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Guava’da, (Psidium Guajava L.) ticari bahçelerin kurulumunda aşıyla üretilmiş fidanlar tercih edilmektedir. Aşı ile çoğaltmada öncelikle aşı yapılacak çöğür ya da anaca ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Bu amaçla planlanan bu araştırmada, bazı arbüsküler mikorizal fungus (AMF) türlerinin, aşılamada kullanılacak guava çöğürlerinin büyüme ve gelişmesi üzerine etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada üç farklı AMF türü (Glomus mosseae, G. etinicatum, G. clarium) kullanılmıştır. Araştırma materyali olarak, pembe et rengine sahip guava genotipine ait çöğürler kullanılmıştır. Mikoriza aşılamaları, her bitkinin kök bölgesine 500 spor/bitki gelecek şekilde yapılmıştır. Aşılamadan 12 hafta sonra bitki gelişim parametreleri (bitki boyu, bitki çapı, kök uzunluğu, bitki ve kökün yaş-kuru ağırlıkları ve mikorizal kolonizasyon) ile ilgili ölçümler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma bulguları; bitki boyunun 74.9-83.9 cm, bitki çapının 5.6-6.5 mm, kök uzunluğunun 41.4-50.7 cm, bitki yaş-kuru ağırlıklarının 19.1-43.9 g - 7.9-17.2 g, kök yaş-kuru ağırlıklarının 9.6-27.8 g - 4.2-12.4 g ve kolonizasyon oranlarının %15-85 arasında değiştiğini göstermiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, guavada bitki büyüme ve gelişmesi üzerine mikoriza türlerinin etkisi farklı olmuştur. İncelenen tüm parametreler açısından en yüksek değerler G. etinicatum türünde elde edilmiş ve bunu sırasıyla G. mosseae ve G. clarium türleri izlemiştir.
