Abstract

Response of citrus to inoculation with the endomycorrhizal fungus Glomus fasciculatum in four soil types of India was studied under greenhouse conditions. Inoculation increased the dry weight of shoot and root and nutrient content of plants. Plants grown in sandy soils responded to a greater extent compared with plants grown in clayey or lateritic soils. The results brought out that mycorrhizal inoculation could be beneficial in certain unsterile soils in spite of the presence of native endophytes.
