Abstract

Evaluation of indigenous VAM fungi was done in the pot experiment, under sterile soil conditions. Altogether, 15 different VAM inoculants were inoculated to the rice var. Mahasoori in the form of soil-inoculum, seperately. Periodical analysis for the VAM root cdonization was done and final data was taken at the 140 days age of the plants, which included growth parameters, ‘P’ content & yield. Our studies have shown that Rice var. Mahasoori responded very well towards mycorrhizal infection & colonization.; The effect of mycorrhization has also been very well demonstrated with respect to plant productivity as higher growth, and yield was recorded in the mycorrhizal plants as compared to control. On the basis of the.se, Glomus sp. 02, Glomus sp. 05 and Glomus sp. 10  are selected for rice var.  Mahasoori for future use..
