Soil salinity limits wheat growth, but several fungal species can promote the productivity under saline conditions. This study investigated how Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), and Penicillium funiculosum and Fusarium oxysporum (PFFO) affected wheat growth under saline conditions.

Wheat, inoculated with AMF, or PFFO, or with AMF and PFFO, was stressed with 75, or 150 mM NaCl in the soil. AMF colonization, grain yield, shoot and root dry weights, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), and chloride (Cl), relative permeability, chlorophyll and proline contents and root malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined.

Salinity limited the grain yield, and reduced N, P and K uptake and chlorophyll content. As soil salinity increased, shoot Na and Cl contents, relative permeability and proline content, and MDA increased. PFFO enhanced root colonization with AMF, N and P uptake and AMF significantly increased N, P and K uptake and chlorophyll content and decreased proline, Na, Cl and MDA contents. Compared to AMF, or PFFO, dual inoculation with AMF and PFFO decreased shoot Na and Cl uptake, increased chlorophyll, shoot N and P contents and K/Na ratio and resulted in approximately 25, 35 and 43% higher grain yield at 0, 75 and 150 mM NaCl, respectively.

Data showed that Penicillium funiculosum and Fusarium oxysporum promoted AMF symbiotic effects and alleviated the deleterious effects of NaCl salts on wheat growth.

土壤盐分限制了小麦的生长，但是在盐分条件下，几种真菌可以提高生产力。这项研究调查了在盐分条件下，丛枝菌根真菌（AMF），真菌青霉和尖孢镰刀菌（PFFO）如何影响小麦的生长。

用75或150 mM NaCl胁迫小麦，接种AMF或PFFO或AMF和PFFO。AMF定殖，谷物产量，枝条和根的干重，氮（N），磷（P），钾（K），钙（Ca），钠（Na）和氯化物（Cl），相对渗透性，叶绿素和脯氨酸含量测定根丙二醛（MDA）。

盐度限制了谷物的产量，并减少了氮，磷和钾的吸收以及叶绿素含量。随着土壤盐分的增加，芽中Na和Cl含量，相对渗透率和脯氨酸含量以及MDA均增加。PFFO通过吸收AMF，N和P来增强根部定植，而AMF则显着增加N，P和K的吸收以及叶绿素的含量，并降低脯氨酸，Na，Cl和MDA的含量。与AMF或PFFO相比，AMF和PFFO的双重接种减少了茎秆Na和Cl的吸收，增加了叶绿素，茎秆N和P含量以及K / Na比，导致0、75时谷物产量分别提高了25％，35％和43％和分别为150 mM NaCl。

数据显示，真菌青霉和尖孢镰刀菌促进了AMF共生作用，并减轻了NaCl盐对小麦生长的有害作用。
