dc.description.abstract | The study was aimed to investigate the effect of tomato seedlings of Falcon variety (Lycopersicum esculantum L.) inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus intraradices in solarized and non solarized parcels on yield and blossom end rot (BER) that cause yield loses in tomato growing. The experiment established according to split-plot design with four replicates as main plot of solarization and sub-plot of mycorrhizal in total 16 parcels. The solarized field increased the soil temperature (11,8,7 & 5 degrees C) than non-applied in different soil depth (5, 10, 20 & 30 cm). The contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Zn and Cu were increased in leaves by solarization. The levels of P, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu in leaves were higher in plots inoculated with AM than without non AM. The effect of solarization on yield was significant and was three times higher than non solarized control. However, AM had no effect on yield. In this study, the expected yield was not obtained, because of blossom end rot (BER). The effect of neither solarization nor AM was seen on this physiological disorder in tomato. However, high temperature affected these abiotic diseases. During the vegetative season, incidence of BER occurred 100% of the high temperature in July-August, whereas this rate was rapidly decreased and was not observed during the cool periods at the end of growing season. The results of this study show that solarization can be applied and recommended for growing tomato in the region, but the research about factors resulting in BER must be accelerated.
