VA Mycorrhizal Techniques / VAM Technology in Establishment of Plants under Salinity Stress Conditions

  • Chapter
Techniques in Mycorrhizal Studies

Abstract

This chapter give a brief account about salt stress and its effect on plant growth, nutrition and on distribution, type and number of VAM fungi. VAM help in establishment of plants under salinity stress. Techniques to assess soil and plant activity has also been given.
