Growth of three legume trees inoculated with VA mycorrhizal fungi and Rhizobium

Abstract

Effectiveness among four VA mycorrhizal fungi and Rhizobium (R) in promoting growth of three legume trees in a P-deficient soil was studied. Glomus fasciculatus + R and Gigaspora margarita + R were most effective for Acacia mangium and Albizia falcataria (syn.:Paraserianthes falcataria). Scutellospora persica + R, Gigaspora margarita + R and Glomus fasciculatus + R were most effective for Acacia auriculifornis. Consistently poor growth was attained by seedlings inoculated with Sclerocystis clavispora + R, Rhizobium alone, or by uninoculated seedlings. © 1988 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
