| description | Two greenhouse experiments and one field trial were conducted to provide information on the possibility of exploiting
the beneficial effects of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in Malaysian agriculture. In the first study, winged
bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus) was grown in steam-sterilized Serdang soils and the development of the
endophytes evaluated fortnightly. The second experiment was conducted in unsterilized Serdang and Munchong soils
respectively with three levels ofP and/or inoculated with Acaulospora laevis, Glomus macrocarpum, Glomus
mosseae, a mixture of Glomus species and Scutellospora calospora. All inocula, except for S. calospora,
significantly enhanced growth throughout the course of the experiments and increased N, P and K concentrations in
the plant tissues. G. mosseae was superior to the rest. In the field trial, Acaulospora laevis, Scutellospora
calospora and Glomus mosseae were inoculated into winged bean grown in unsterilized field soil, with or
without phosphate fertilizer. Inoculation of winged bean with G. mosseae significantly (P < 0.05) increased
inflorescence formation (4.5/plant) , particularly at an intermediate level (60 kg ha-1
) of P fertilizer. |
