Effects on Glomus mosseae Root Colonization by Paenibacillus polymyxa and Paenibacillus brasilensis Strains as Related to Soil P-Availability in Winter Wheat
Figure 5
(a) Total phosphorus (milligram per plant) at harvest (15 weeks) in triplicate samples of wheat plant roots inoculated with or without G. mosseae or left untreated. Paenibacilli strains (B1–B4 and PB177) were added at a concentration of 106 or 108 bacterial cells 10 g−1 of seeds. Treatments that were significantly altered from control pots without added bacteria, as assessed with the unpaired -test, are indicated as *. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean. (b) Total phosphorus (milligram per plant) at harvest (15 weeks) in triplicate samples of wheat plant shoots inoculated with or without G. mosseae or left untreated. Treatments and tests as in Figure 5(a).
