What is Performance and gene effects for root characters and micronutrient uptake in wheat inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and Azotobacter chroococcum about?
The present investigation was conducted to investigate the impact of bio-inoculants on the magnitude and direction of gene effects and mean performance for root length density, root biomass per plant, AMF colonization in roots and micronutrient uptake (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn) in wheat under low input field conditions. The material for study comprised three wheat cultivars, WH 147 (low mineral input), WH 533 (drought-tolerant), Raj 3077 (high mineral input) and six generations (P~1~, P~2~, F~1~, F~2~, BC~1~and BC~2~) of three crosses, namely WH 147 × WH 533, WH 533 × Raj 3077 and WH 147 × Raj 3077. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with three replications having three treatments, i.e. (i) control; (ii) inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF,__Glomus fasciculatum__); (iii) dual inoculation with AMF and__Azotobacter chroococcum__(__Azc__). The fertilizer doses in all three treatments were 80 kg N + 40 kg P + 18 kg ZnSO~4~ha^−1^. Root length density, root biomass per plant, AMF colonization in roots and Zn and Mn content were found to be maximum after dual inoculation with AMF+__Azc__in all three crosses. Joint scaling tests revealed that additive-dominance
