Aher, RK. 2009. Effect of AM fungi on mycorrhizal colonization, growth and nutrition of Arachis hypogea L. International Journal of Agricultural Sciences. 4(1):245-247. An investigation was conducted on the mycorrhizal colonization, growth and nutrition of groundnut inoculated with Glomus fasciculatum in nutrition deficient sterilized soil using earthen pots. Significantly higher percentage of mycorrhizal colonization was recorded in the treatment where G. fasciculatum were present. After 30, 45 and 60 days of plant growth, 32.4, 45.2 and 68.2% root colonization were recorded in G. fasciculatum-inoculated plants compared to the control. G. fasciculatum combination improved plant growth, shoot and root dry weights and uptake more than the uninoculated control plants.
