Abstract

A greenhouse study was conducted under nursery conditions to study the efficacy of fly ash and (AM) fungi in Tectona grandis.  Seedlings were raised in Arbuscular mycorrhizal earthen pots containing soil inoculated with AM fungi and fly ash with different levels (1%, 3% and 5%) of fly ash.  Tectona grandis seedlings raised in the presence of AM fungi generally showed an increase in plant growth parameters, mycorrhizal parameters and plant nutritional status over those grown in the absence of the inoculation of soil with AM fungi. The growth parameters, mycorrhizal parameters and nutritional status enhanced by AM fungi with 3% fly ash of Tectona grandis seedlings. It can be evident from the results that, AM fungus Glomus fasciculatum with 3% fly ash was found to be the more efficient treatment of the enhancement of plant growth and nutrient uptake in Tectona grandis plants.
