Abstract:
In vitro propagated fig genotype 01-IN-06 plants (which were propagated and rooted in the MS free media) were used to screen the most suitable arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi for enhancing plant growth by improving nutrient uptake under glasshouse conditions. G. mossea, G. etunicatum, G. intraradices, G. macrocarpium, G. caledonium, G. margarita, G. clarium and their cocktail was used as inoculum. Experi¬ment was designed with three replications having five plants in each treatment and also control plants which were not treated with mycorrhiza. Mycorrhizal inoculation increased fig plant shoot, root dry weight, zinc and phosphorus uptake. Also, AMF significantly increased root infection. G. caledonium and G. margarita gave a high response to the plant growth, nutrient uptake and root infection.
