Table 1.

Effects of foliar spray with Ch on glucose, fructose, and sucrose level in roots inoculated with R. irregularis. Data are represented as the mean ± SD of eight biological replicates (n = 8), different letters show significantly different values after one-way ANOVA followed by Duncan’s multiple range test (p ≤ 0.05).

Treatments 1	Glucose (mg/gFW)	Fructose (mg/gFW)	Sucrose (mg/gFW)
Ch0+AMF	31.07 ± 4.27 a	0.37 ± 0.11 a	77.55 ± 9.65 a
Ch0.25+AMF	27.91 ± 6.45 a	0.42 ± 0.13 a	68.71 ± 7.65 a
Ch1+AMF	30.11 ± 6.46 a	0.38 ± 0.10 a	71.96 ± 9.66 a

¹ Ch_x: different concentration of chitosan (0, 0.25 and 1 mg/mL); +AMF: inoculation with R. irregularis.
