Journal Title: Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
Present study was aim to determined the impact of mycorrhiza fungi isolated from grasses weed on the growth and yield of mustard in Ultisols.

Mycorrhiza fungi infection observated on plants root done in the Laboratory of the Faculty of Forestry and Environmental Science, Halu Oleo University, Kendari, Indonesia. Study was conducted in completely randomized block design (CRBD) with five treatments, each treatment was replicated with 5 replications. The variables observed for results were characteristic of mycorrhiza fungi, plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, fresh plant weight, dry plants weight, shoot root ratio, percentage of mycorrhiza fungi infection to plant roots. Results of study revealed that the treatments contains mycorrhiza fungi propagules @ 100 g per polybag show superiority over all the tested treatments in improving plant growth characteristics and yield of mustard plant.
