An established arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis suppresses further mycorrhization. It is not clear whether the observed suppressional effect is linked with the level of root colonization or not. In the present work we studied the effect of the degree of root colonization by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae on further root colonization by G. mosseae. At different time points barl...

Komoditi nilam termasuk bahan baku ekspor yang cukup laris di dunia perdagangan internasional. Indonesia merupakan salah satu produsen utama minyak dunia. Salah cara untuk meningkatkan produksi optimal ialah melalui pemupukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh jenis mikoriza dan dosis SP-36 terhadap pertumbuhan hasil pada tanah Entisol. dilaksanakan Kebun Percobaan Laboratorium Horti...

The mutualistic basidiomycete Piriformospora indica colonizes roots of mono- and dicotyledonous plants, and thereby improves plant health and yield. Given the capability of P. indica to colonize a broad range of hosts, it must be anticipated that the fungus has evolved efficient strategies to overcome plant immunity and to establish a proper environment for nutrient acquisition and reproduction...

The fungicide benomyl inhibited spore germination and hyphal length of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae when applied at doses of 21.25 microg/ml (agronomic dose), 10.62 microg/ml and 10 microg/ml. G. mosseae was able to germinate in the presence of 2.12 microg/ml of benomyl, and the percentage of spore germination was unaffected by dosis of 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 microg/ml of the f...

Glomus mosseae, a representative species of Endogonaceae (Phycomycetes) able to form vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza, was investigated for phytohormone production. Spores of G. mosseae were axenically germinated in water, and the resultant mycelial growth was assayed by standard procedures for extracting plant hormones from microbial cultures. Paper partition chromatography and specific bioassa...

in order to assess drought tolerance of mycorrhizal petunia plants (petunia hybrida cv. mix), a greenhouse experiment was carried out with two different mycorrhizae species (glomus mosseae and glomus intraradices) applied singly or in combination at two phosphorous (p) levels (0 and 100 mg kg-1 dry soil) and three irrigation regimes (100% field capacity (fc) as control, 75% fc producing moderat...
