| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions to find out the most effective mycorrhizal fungi suppressing Radopholus similis multiplication on coconut. The mycorrhizal isolates used were Acaulospora bireticulata, Scutellospora coralloidea. Glomus macrocarpum and Sclerocystis rubiformis. Among the different mycorrhizae inoculated individually, A. bireticulata supported maximum plant growth. The minimum growth characters and maximum multiplication of nematodes were recorded in plants that were inoculated with R. similis alone. On combined inoculation of mycorrhizae and R. similis, the maximum growth was recorded in plant inoculated with A. bireticulata. The mycorrhiza, A. bireticulata was found to multiply maximum on coconut compared to G. macrocarpum, Scutellospora coralloidea and S. rubiformis in nematode free as well as nematode inoculated plants. Nematode population was also lowest in plants inoculated with A. bireticulata. | en_US |
