Photosynthetic activity and growth of poblano pepper biofertilized with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: concentration (Ci), transpiration rate (E), stomatal conductance (gS) and photosynthesis rate (Pn) were determined in leaves. Co-inoculation with AM+B3 promoted greater height (35%), number of leaves (66%), leaf area (62%), dry biomass (140%), phosphorus content (195%) and mycorrhizal colonization (26%); AM+B2 improved Ci (5%), E (8%), gS (5%) and Pn (9%) in poblano pepper leaves, compared to the control treatment (WM+WB). Biofertilization with AMF and PGPR improved gas exchange and growth of poblano pepper.
