Interaction of papaya seedlings inoculated with different mycorrhizal fungi species 1

[...]increasing efforts to improve the crop efficiency have been carried out. being the study of quality seedling production of fundamental importance. [...]inoculation with AMFs in the production phase of papaya seedlings can become an alternative technology with potential for practical application. [...]the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation of different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMFs) on papaya seeds, aiming at the formation of healthy seedlings in order to subsidize management and crop production studies. According to the Koppen classification, the predominant climate in the region is Aw, categorized as humid subtropical, with hot and rainy summers and dry and mild winters with low rainfall, with average annual temperature of 23.6 °C (Rodrigues et al.. The Relative Growth Rate (RGR) was adjusted in relation to time using a second-degree polynomial equation. [...]data were presented in the fonn of graphs, evaluating the behavior of curves (Ferreira et al., 2019).
