The objective of the study was to evaluate fertilizing potential two arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi ( Glomeraceae and Acaulosporaceae ) native rhizosphere soils Benin in a controlled environment (under greenhouse) field environment. For this purpose, corn seeds were coated with strains then deposited 5 cm deep holes. Different doses mineral fertilizer applied according treatments.The experimental design split plot ten treatments three replicates both conditions. Sowing done following per pot...

The use of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) is considered one the effective organic ways to increase crops productivity.The aim this study was evaluate growth promoting effect three mycorrhizal fungi (Glomus cubense, Rhizophagus intraradices and Funneliformis mosseae) on maize in a ferruginous soil Northern Benin.Maize seeds were inoculated with combination or without minerals fertilizer.Study conducted completely randomized block design nine treatments four replicates.The endomycorrhizal...
The application of biostimulants in agriculture represents an environmentally friendly alternative while increasing agricultural production. aims the study were to develop solid based on five rhizobacteria native Benin’s soils and evaluate their efficacy growth biomass yield maize under greenhouse conditions ferrallitic ferruginous soils. Clay peat used as a conservation binder for preparation biostimulants. These binders alone or combined different formulations with flour sucrose. 10 g...
Maize plays an important role in agricultural production systems all agro-ecological zones of Benin. Despite its importance, faces many constraints including soil fertility. One the ecological technologies aimed at improving is use microorganisms arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). This study aims to evaluate effectiveness Rhizophagus intraradices , indigenous strain, on maize productivity farmers' areas Research and Development (RD) sites North (Ouénou), Center (Miniffi), South (Zouzouvou)....
Aims: This work aims to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of Sarcocephalus latifolius extracts.
 Methodology: Thus, phytochemical screening was qualitatively accessed using colorations or precipitations methods. Ethanolic and aqueous extracts were used activity. The activity, diffusion method, evaluated on eight strains including two reference (Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619 Pseudomonas aeruginosa 27853) six clinically isolated S. P. strains. minimum inhibitory concentrations...
Background and Objective: The manufacturing technology of porridges can be used to improve not only the organoleptic nutritional qualities but also shelf life finished products.The aim this study was establish traditional process eight cereal-based fermented consumed in North Benin, West-Africa.Materials Methods: A survey carried out among producers porridge consummation area Northern Benin.A total one hundred eighty female were randomly interviewed nine communes (Kandi, Banikoara, Djougou,...
Excessive use of mineral fertilizers in maize farming negatively affects farmers’ income and impacts long-term soil health. This study aims to appreciate the effectiveness biostimulant based on native Glomeraceae arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi production uptake phosphorus, nitrogen potassium (Zea mays L.) plants central Benin. The trials were set up a environment with thirty-four producers. experimental design was composed three treatments installed at 34 Three growth parameters evaluated 60...
The objective of the study was to evaluate joint effects three groups native arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Glomeraceae, Acaulosporaceae and Diversisporaceae) on growth Maize Seedlings. were isolated by wet sieving method through decreasing sieve (300 µm, 125 63 µm 38 µm) followed centrifugation a sucrose gradient. tests evaluated in greenhouse conditions for 40 days. After opening planting hole, two maize (2000 SYNEE-W) seeds, one coated with AMF other not (Control) introduced into...
Consumption of market gardening product has displayed several cases food poisoning because they are being consumed raw often. This study aims to establish antibiotics resistance and toxins production profiles Staphylococcus aureus strain isolated from products irrigation water in Cotonou. In this regard, 4 kind (Lettuce, Carrot, Nightshade, Cabbage) 22 samples (pool, well drilling water) were collected four gardeners analyzed. The S. strains identified using microbial method classical...
In the face of persistent soil degradation in Benin due to poor agricultural practices, including excessive use chemical fertilizers, there is an urgent need seek solutions that integrate microorganisms interest. The aim study was assess effect combining three strains indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on maize production northern Benin. involved 34 growers Ouénou, Bagou, and Kokey. experimental set-up consisted elementary plots with treatments. Growth parameters were...
In the face of persistent soil degradation in Benin caused by poor agricultural practices, including excessive use chemical fertilizers, it is urgent to find solutions that take into account microorganisms interest. This study aimed assess effect combining three strains indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on maize production northern Benin. The involved 34 growers Ouénou, Bagou and Kokey. experimental setup consisted elementary plots with treatments. Growth parameters were measured...
Abstract In the current context of decline in soil fertility, degradation and climate change, use mycorrhizal inoculum is one alternatives for sustainable agriculture. This study aims to determine best combination Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) biostimulant mineral fertilizer (NPK + Urea) improve maize production nutritional status plants on ferruginous soils. The experimental design was a completely randomized block seventeen treatments repeated three times Savè/Benin. Growth parameters...
Fermentation is an ancestral process and one of the most used economic methods in preservation transformation cereal-based food raw materials. They are essentially rich carbohydrates, but they can also be a source micronutrients such as iron many traditional culinary preparations, particular fermented porridges. The aim this study to identify variability porridges produced consumed northern Benin. Thus, 315 producers consumers were randomly interviewed nine localities First, field surveys...
