The role of boron (B) fertilization in the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) colonization and growth of container-grown Citrus seedlings was evaluated. Citrus jambhiri Lush, seedlings inoculated with Glomus fasciculatum, Glomus etunicatum or non-inoculated were grown in a sandy loam soil for sixteen weeks. Seedlings were fertilized with 25 ug/ml B applied to the foliage as a mist, to the soil as a solution, or to both the foliage and the soil. Boron applied to the foliage or to the soil significantly increased root exudation of reducing sugars and amino acids two weeks after seedling germination. Subsequently, foliar fertilization with B significantly increased VAH colonization of seedlings relative to the controls. Plants inoculated with G. fasciculatum were larger and had greater VAM development than those inoculated with G. etunicatum. The growth of the noninoculated seedlings was not enhanced by B fertilization. The superior VAH colonization and growth of inoculated seedlings fertilized with B suggests that B stimulates the efficacy of plant fungi symbiosis. |
