Abstract

Effect of co-inoculation of AM fungi and two beneficial microorganisms on growth and nutrient uptake of Eleusine coracana Gaertn. (Finger millet).

Earthen pot experiments were carried out to study the co-inoculation effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomus fasciculatum), Azospirillium brasilense and PSB on plant height, dry weight of root and shoot, per cent root colonization, spore number, P and N uptake. Experimental pots were filled with 4 kgs of sterilized soil and maintained in green house at 25-30o C temperature. Single inoculation of AM fungi and combined inoculation of AM fungi with Azospirillium brasilense or PSB was found to be moderately increased in all the growth parameters. However triple inoculation of AM fungi, Azospirillium brasilense and PSB was found to have highest growth parameters.
