The effect of using VAM Fungi and Rhizobia on growth of white corn and chick pea Plants

Abstract

A Study was done to show the effect of Mycrrhizal fungi and Rhizobia inoculum on the qualitative and growth of white corn and chick pea plants.The experiment was performed in experimental fields where the soil used was poorly fertilized and of high Ca content leading to conditions of Ph 7.5. The results showed that the effect of the mycrrhizal fungi and Rhizobia inoculum lead to a significant increase in the growth of the white corn plants and chick pea plants . Also it showed asignificant effect on the increase in the absorption of minerals P,K,and Zn. Therefore concluding that the increase in the plants growth was due to the combination of the direct effect of the Azetobacteria and the Mycrrhizal fungi inoculum and also due to the influencing effect of Azetobacteria on the Mycrrhizal fungi and both the Mycrrhizal fungi and Azetobacter will each act directly on the rhizosphere were producing significant effect.On onclusion we see that the experimental results prove that the use of Mycrrhizal fungi with Azetobacteria as an organic biofertilizer instead of inorganic chemical fertilizer on poor nutritive soil will improve the quality and quantity of plant growth
