Present study deals with the distribution and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in naturally growing Withania somnifera Ocimum sanctum.Variations soil pH moisture content (%) at different depths (0-10, 10-20, 20-30 30-40 cm) their possible influences on AMF spore populations were studied two sites i.e.Jaitpur Karaiya.A total 27 species (8 Acaulospora, 1 Cetraspora, Claroideoglomus, Entrophospora, Funneliformis, 13 Glomus, Simiglomus Septoglomus) identified.Results revealed that...
The purpose of present study was to develop a management strategy based on time effective inoculation arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) mitigate the yield losses Cicer arietinum L. due Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris (Foc). interactions between AMF (mycorrhizal consortium; Myc) and Foc were studied in three separate experiments two successive years (2011 2012). In particular, we investigated: effect Myc population density Foc, mycorrhisation (root colonisation index spore density/50 g...
In present study, three important multipurpose tree species, namely Aegle marmelos, Leucaena leucocephala and Parkia roxburghii were inoculated with better performing native arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) species of the region. The AMF viz., Acaulospora scrobiculata Rhizophagus irregularis individually in combination under nursery conditions. Study consisted four treatments i.e. mycorrhizal [individual inoculation (A. scrobiculata, R. irregularis) combined + irregularis)] a control...
Pongamia pinnata (L.) Pierre, a fast-growing oil-seed-producing tree legume, has the ability to grow on wastelands. It can be utilized for biofuel plantation such lands. The preconditioning of young seedlings during early stage development with efficient arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) confers several benefits enhancing possibility their establishment in fields after outplanting from nurseries. However, before recommending these inoculation, suitable AMF species must identified....
Study on horticulture + crop dairy poultry (H C D P) and dairy+ sheep/goat P S/G) farming systems was conducted in Tiruvallur Thanjavur districts of Tamil Nadu, India to understand the contribution horticulture-based system providing sustainable livelihood influencing techno-socio-economic characteristics farm families. A Sustainable Livelihood Index (SLI) developed. The H not only perceived be eco-friendly but also ensured high level food security (76.92%) than S/G (66.67%). However, both...
India with its unique agro climate conditions favours cultivation of number fruits.For decades together typical temperate fruits like apple, pear, stone and nut were grown adequate production productivity.However, during the past 10-15 years on account global warming many sites which potential hub for fruit have been rendering unfit their cultivation.The productivity especially apple in Himachal Pradesh is declining at a faster rate.Average yield has estimated about 7.0 t/ha far below level...
The present study was carried out to assess the effect of bio-inoculants [arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), rhizobium (Rhi)/azotobacter (Azo) and phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB)] on growth yield two important oilseed crops Bundelkhand region, viz., Arachis hypogaea (groundnut) Sesamum indicum (sesame). Study consisted six treatments AMF, Rhi/Azo, PSB, Rhi/Azo+PSB, AMF+Rhi/Azo+PSB control. recommended dose DAP applied in all plots were imposed respective plots. Each treatment...
AbstractThe aim of present study was to investigate the effect individual and co-inoculation Trichoderma arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in controlling wilt disease growth reduction Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. caused by Fusarium udum. In this regard, three different isolates Trichoderma, i.e. harzianum, T. viride Th0126K, consortium AMF (Myc, mixture Glomus cerebriforme, G. intraradices mosseae) individually combinations were tested net house. Among all treatments tested, harzianum Myc...
Abstract Trees’ canopy pruning is one of the most important management practices in agroforestry that allows understory crops to receive adequate sunlight. The effect on productivity intercrops well known; however, information its soil properties scanty. Hence, studies were conducted determine 1) whether has any and 2) what level should be adopted selected systems. Two separate models, based Albizia procera (10-year-old) Hardwickia binata (20-year-old), for study, which included three...
