Wheat (Triticum aestivum) Responses to Rhizophagus irregularis Inoculation Under Microwave Soil Sterilization Conditions

Key Points

• Wheat growth improved significantly with inoculation of rhizophagus irregularis under sterilized conditions.
• Key evidence showed increased root biomass by 30% compared to control treatments with no inoculation.
• Analysis focused on the effects of microwave soil sterilization and subsequent mycorrhizal fungi inoculation.
• Highlights the potential for sustainable farming practices to enhance crop yields with minimal chemical use.
