Physiological impact of Trichoderma viride agents on the quality and production of melon that is grown on soils continuously cropped to melon by Jingyi Liu, Hua Lian, Jingwei Dou, Jingjing Li, Guangliang Zhu, Jiatong Wang, Guangshu Ma, Mei Li

“…The treatment of 6.4 × 105 CFU/g had the best promoting effect on the morphology of melon seedlings, and the plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, fresh weight of whole plant, dry weight of whole plant, root shoot ratio, and strong seedling index of melon seedlings increased by 90.39, 46.30, 37.55, 81.35, 100.62, 51.47, and 240.00%, respectively, compared with CK. The results showed that different amounts of T. viride agents could improve physiological and biochemical indices of melon leaves during the fruiting stage; the treatment of 6.4 × 105 CFU/g was the most effective; chlorophyll content, nitrate nitrogen content, sucrose content, reducing sugar content, free proline content, nitrate reductase (NR) activity, peroxidase (POD) activity, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of melon leaves increased at 30 days after melon pollination. …”
