Mycorrhizal fungi as biological components of cucumber production in the Western Balkan region - impact on plant performance under mal-nutrition and excess salinity
Abstract
An empirical study will be conducted to evaluate the potential of artificial mycorrhizal inoculation to improve cucumber performance and subsequently yield under suboptimal growth conditions such as nutrient limitation and excess nutrients/salinity and to estimate the effects of mycorrhizal inoculation on rootstock-scion relationships. The results are envisioned to improve good agricultural practices for cucumber production in the Western Balkan region. Joint analyses, a method workshop and meetings will strengthen the collaboration between the three Universities in Albania, Austria and Kosovo and will increase the method competences and the competitiveness of the involved young/early career researchers in the European scientific community.
