Abstracts |
The current study deals with the effect of soil moisture in ectomycorrhizal formation in the seedlings of Prunus cerasoides Buch. -Ham. Ex D.Don. inoculated with two native
ectomycorrhizal fungi viz., Tricholoma imbricatum and Cantharellus cibarius, some seedlings were maintained as control. Soil samples were collected during different season. The study highlights the
importance of soil moisture for optimum ectomycorrhizal formation which appears to have a positive impact on the increased growth of the seedlings. The study observes a significant improvement and increased in the growth of Prunus cerasoides seedlings between the mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal seedlings. |
