Abstract
Cabbage (Brassica oleracea, var. capitata, cv. Hercules) seedlings were inoculated with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi Glomus fasciculatum, G. aggregatum, and G. mosseae. Differential efficiency in mycorrhizal colonization and the specificity of fungal symbiont to stimulate the growth and nutrient uptake of the host were observed. In addition, there was an increase in phenol, protein, reducing sugar contents, and peroxidase activity in the VAM inoculated seedlings. Since these compounds are known to confer resistance against fungal pathogens, the use of VAM as a biological control agent to protect cabbage against several root diseases is suggested.
