selection of efficient va mycorrhizal fungi for Casuarina equisetifolia second screening
New Forests, 1995Co-Authors: M. Vasanthakrishna, Joseph D Bagyaraj, Jones P NirmalnathAbstract:An investigation was carried out to screen and select efficient vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi for inoculating the forest tree species, Casuarina equisetifolia. The seedlings were inoculated with 10 different VAM fungi, obtained from various sources. Inoculated seedlings generally had greater plant height, stem girth, biomass and P content than uninoculated plants. They also had more mycorrhizal root colonization and spore numbers in root zone soil. C. equisetifolia seedlings responded best (in biomass) to inoculation with Glomus mosseae (Nicolson and Gerdemann) Gerdemann and Trappe, closely followed by Acaulospora laevis Gerdemann and Trappe and G. fasciculatum (Thaxter Sensu Gerdemann) Gerdemann and Trappe; all the three being statistically on par with each other.

Responses of Casuarina equisetifolia to inoculation with Glomus fasciculatum and/or Frankia
Forest Ecology and Management, 1994Co-Authors: M. Vasanthakrishna, D.j. Bagyaraj, P.j. NirmalnathAbstract:Abstract Response of Casuarina equisetifolia L. to inoculation with Glomus fasciculatum and/or Frankia was studied in a phosphorus-deficient unsterile soil. Mycorrhizal root colonization and sporulation was greatest in plants inoculated with G. fasciculatum alone compared with other treatments. Single inoculation with either G. fasciculatum or Frankia significantly improved plant growth compared with uninoculated control plants. The effects of G. fasciculatum were greater than those of Frankia. Dual inoculation with both the symbionts enhanced the growth of Casuarina more than single inoculation with either organism.

Selection of efficient VA mycorrhizal fungi for inoculating Casuarina equisetifolia
Arid Soil Research and Rehabilitation, 1993Co-Authors: M. Vasanthakrishna, D.j. BagyarajAbstract:Abstract An investigation was carried out to screen and select efficient vesicular‐arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi for Casuarina equisetifolia L. The seedlings were inoculated with 13 different VAM fungi, which were obtained from various global sources. Inoculated plants exhibited increased plant height, biomass, and P and Zn contents. They also had increased mycorrhizal root colonization and spore numbers in soil. C. equisetifolia seedlings responded best to inoculation with Glomus mosseae (local) followed by G. versiforme.
