Sustainable management of environmental Technologies related with agriculture.

We are dealing and out group being specialized in optimizing growth of crops with soil biodiversity, soil organisms, including mycorrhizal fungi, increasing soil quality and soil fertility. We are dealing with biological properties of soil, phosphorus, nitrogen and carbon cycling, environmental pollution, mychorrizal fungi and its involvement in nutrients cycling, studies on plant nutrient uptake especially for horticultural and crop sciences (vegetables, fruit trees, annual and cereal plants) and transport, nutrient deficiencies, mechanisms involved in adaptation of plants to abiotic stress factors. I have wide experience in research on the application of mycorrhizal fungi on crops for the Mediterranean region. Also, we have good contact with Turkish organizations which will facilitate the restoration of degraded and desertified soil with mycorrhizal fungi by the local communities at large scale.
So far we have achieved to produce soil microorganisms and to use in horticulture.
-In Rhizosphere and soil quality lab, we are dealing with 33 different plant species. Mainly we use citrus, tomato, pepper, melon, watermelon, garlic, onion, wheat, maize, cotton, and soybean, cherry, pistachio. Since plane of Cukurova have divers
