Table 1 Results from ANOVA testing the effects of fertilizer level, irrigation regime and rice ecotype on mycorrhizal inoculation effect (MIE) for yield-related traits (total biomass (Biomass), tiller number (Tiller), panicle number (Pan_Num), panicle weight (Pan_Weight), spikelet fertility (Fertility), thousand grain weight (TWG), harvest index (HI), plant height (Height), and maturity dates (Mat_Days)). Different letters in the pairwise comparisons indicate significant differences at p < 0.05.
