Title: Effect of mycorrhizal inoculants on the growth and nutrient uptake of Vitis vinifera
Abstract: Modern agricultural practices can reduce the abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi that occur in the soil. This decline in AM fungal abundance has led to an emerging market of mycorrhizal inoculant products to be used for the re-inoculation of AM fungi in disturbed systems. My graduate research will investigate whether mycorrhizal inoculants can establish in live field soil and improve productivity of young Vitis vinifera compared to locally sourced AM fungal inoculants.

About the Order

The Order of the Engineer was initiated in the United States to foster a spirit of pride and responsibility in the engineering profession, to bridge the gap between training and experience, and to present to the public a visible symbol identifying the engineer. The Order is not a membership organization; there are never any meetings to attend or dues to pay. Instead, the Order fosters a unity of purpose and the honoring of one’s pledge lifelong.

The Engineer’s Ring in the United States is a stainless steel ring, worn on the fifth finger of the working hand by engineers who have accepted the Obligation of an Engineer in a Ring Ceremony.
