Phycoflora Associated with the Rhizosphere of Rice field

Yadav S. G.

Abstract :

Phycoflora associated with the rhizosphere of rice field were isolatedat three different growth stages of rice plant i.e. seedling stage, flowering stage and fruiting stage. The soil samples from the samefield werecollected and cultured for algal composition termed as control. The number of phycoflora was greater in rhizosphere than the control. The maximum phycoflora were recorded at the flowering stage of the plant. Altogether 66 species under 24 genera were recorded from rhizosphere of rice plant of these 6 species under 4 genera belonged to Chlorophyceae, 1species under 1 genera belonged to Bacillariophyceae and 59 species under 19 genera belonged to Cyanophyceae. The members of Cyanophyceae were found dominant and a total of 28 species under 16 genera were recorded from control soil, of these 4 species under 2 genera belonged to Chlorophyceae and 24 species under 14 genera belonged to Cyanophyceae.
