Abstract
Interaction between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae and plant growth promoting fungus Phoma sp. was studied for its effect on their root colonization and plant growth of cucumber. Two isolates of Phoma sp. (GS8-2 and GS8-3) were tested with G. mosseae. The percent root length colonized by G. mosseae was not adversely affected by the presence of Phoma isolates. In contrast, the root colonization of both isolates GS8-2 and GS8-3 in 4-week-old plants was significantly reduced (80.7% and 84.3%, respectively) by added G. mosseae. Inoculating plants with each Phoma isolate significantly increased the shoot dry weight. However, dual inoculation of each Phoma isolate with G. mosseae had no significant effect on growth enhancement.
