Response of Jute Mallow (Corchorus olitorius L.) Grown in an Alfisol and Inceptisol to Different Organic Fertilizers and Mycorrhizal Inoculation in Nigeria

F. B. Musa, O. F. Oyetunji, R. V. Oyewumi, D. A. Adenuga, C. I. Ihediuche & F. T. Adelusi · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2020

Background and Objective: The use of organic fertilizers in soil usually upsurge the infection rate of mycorrhizal in a plant, thereby increases the nutrients content, uptake and promotes the vegetative growth of  the host plant. This experiment was conducted to assess the influe...
