Abstract

The influence of VAM on yield and water use efficiency (WUE) of Medicago sativa was studied under two water regimes (100% field capacity and 50% field capacity). The shoot dry weight and root dry weight significantly increased at 100% field capacity as compared to 50% field capacity. There was a proportion of increase in shoot and root weight of the plant at dual mycorrhizal inoculation. The water use efficiency significantly increased by the inoculation with mycorrhizae under both the water regimes. Water use efficiency recorded increased at the dual inoculation but maximum water use efficiency recorded with Glomus etunicatum + Glomus intraradices was 294 g at 100% field capacity and 198 g at 50% field capacity. The maximum shoot and root dry weight also increased to 12.57, 10.22 g for shoot and 3.68, 2.97 g for root at 100 and 50% field capacity, respectively.
