Effectiveness of mycorhizal biofertilizers on pepper (Capsicum annuum L. var. Verano 1) yield grown under different substrate moisture conditions
Main Article Content
Abstract
was evaluated as a biofertilization alternative in organoponics
as well as its effect on pepper yield at different substrate
moisture levels. Since the beginning of flowering-fruiting, when
20 % of plants had flowers, two irrigation variants were settled,
which consisted of applying water when substrate moisture
decreased to 65 and 90 % of the container capacity (Cc). The
inoculations with Glomus hoi-like and Glomus mosseae strains
increased the yield of pepper fruit weight, compared to the
non-inoculated control, between 12 and 24 % in the treatment
of lower moisture content (65 % Cc) whereas between 10 and
20 % in the other of greater water supply (90 % Cc) of the
substrate. A higher yield was obtained by Glomus mosseae at
different substrate moisture levels.
