Keywords:
Mycorrhiza, Catharanthus roseus, G.fasciculatum, G.mosseae, G.macrocarpum, G.aggregatumAbstract
An experiment was undertaken to study the selected medicinal plant and their therapeutic value with the association of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Rhizospheric soil samples were collected from the local places of Dharwad, which is geographically located between 14º15' and 15º50' North longitudes and 74º48' and 76º20' east latitude of north-western part of Karnataka state, India. The present investigation was under taken to evaluate the efficacy of four different indigenous AM fungi (G.fasciculatum,G.mosseae G.macrocarpum and G.aggregatum) on plant growth, biomass production, per cent colonization, spore number and "P" uptake in Catharanthus roseus medicinal plant. Thus the present study clearly brought out medicinal plant could be conserve by inoculated efficient arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to establish healthy seedling stock at nursery level?.
