THE EFFECT OF THE CULTURE FLUID OF THE T. HIRSUTA TH-11 FUNGUS ON THE MORPHOMETRIC PARAMETERS OF BRASSICA JUNCEA L. SEEDLINGS IN CONDITIONS OF SOIL CONTAMINATION WITH CADMIUM IONS

The effect of basal top dressing with an organic fertilizer obtained as a result of the bioconversion of the lignocarbon component of wheat straw on the morphometric growth parameters of Brassica juncea L. seedlings growing in soil contaminated with cadmium ions was studied. The growth-stimulating and protective effect of applying the culture fluid of T. hirsuta Th-11 fungus to the soil as an organic fertilizer on the length of the root and stem, as well as on the accumulation of dry biomass of Brassica juncea L. seedlings, was evaluated. The protective effect of culture fluid of T. hirsuta Th-11 fungus was determined on plant growth in conditions of soil contamination with cadmium ions. It was found that the possibility of using biofertilizers obtained by bioconversion of plant waste increases the productivity and fertility of soils in man-made territories contaminated with cadmium ions.
