Abstract

Inoculation of Glomus macrocarpum (AMF) with additional, super phosphate and rock phosphate treatment showed varied results on Solanum nigrum and Solanum indica. At 30 days interval experimental plants have not exhibited any better growth or nutrient uptake in mycorrhizal plants nor non-mycorrhization plants. However, both the plants significantly showed higher growth, biomass production nutrients uptake in both shoot and root of mycorrhizal plants over non-mycorrhizal plants. When the plants of Solanum nigrum treated with 3.0mg rock phosphate/kg soil, with mycorrhizal inoculation, and Solanum indica showed plants treated with 1. 0mg super phosphate /kg soil with mycorrhizal inoculation, on contrast to this per cent of AM fungal colonization and spore number decreased with the increased dosage of Super phosphate.
