Abstract :Biomass responses to mycorrhizae and fertilization of phosphorus insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(P); and elemental sulfur insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ES); on green pepper insert ignore into journalissuearticles values( Capsicum annuum L .); grown for 45 days on calcareous sterilized Menekşe soil insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(sub-group Typic Xerorthent); were investigated. Root yield was increased by mycorrhizal inoculation compared to the control treatment. However, shoot yield remained unchanged. On the other hand, there was more synergistic effect between mycorrhizae and combined fertilization of ES and P, compared to the ES or P fertilization alone. Accordingly, shoot concentrations of P significantly increased. The other shoot nutrient concentrations differed independently from each other insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p>0.05);. Results showed that P and ES fertilization increased the efficieny of mycorrhizae in the clay soil growth conditions and mycorrhizae has potential to increase yield.
