Table 1 Impact of mycorrhiza inoculation (AMF) and different alkalinity levels (T1, T2) either under stressed and unstressed on caryopses yield parameters of the wheat plant at productivity stage. The data are means ± SD (n = 3). Different letters indicate statistically significant differences according to Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05)

From: The efficiency of arbuscular mycorrhiza in increasing tolerance of Triticum aestivum L. to alkaline stress
