This research investigated the influence of inoculating Telfairia occidentalis and Cucurbita maxima with arbuscular mycorrhizas (Rhizophagus irregularis and Glomus geosporum) with poultry manure in Na⁺/K⁺ ratio adjustment and plant mineral nutrition. Saline soil used had an electrical conductivity (EC) of 6.70 dS/m, while the garden soil had an EC of 0.29 dS/m. Mineral analysis of C. maxima and T. occidentalis leaves revealed increased uptake and accumulation of Na⁺, Cl^-, Zn and a high Na⁺/K⁺ ratio, while N, P, K, Mg, Ca, Fe and Mn were significantly (p=0.05) reduced in saline soil treatments. Inoculation with mycorrhiza alone or together with PM increased the minerals in the two test plants both in saline and non-saline treatments. The mycorrhizas aided the maintenance of favorable K⁺/Na⁺ ratio equivocating the disruption of K⁺ homeostasis. The capacity of plants to maintain a high cytosolic K⁺/Na⁺ ratio is one of the key determinants of plant salt tolerance.
