Abstract :

Interaction between Frateuria aurentia (K mobilizer) and plant growth promoting rhizomicroorganism (PGPR) viz. Glomus mosseae, Frateuria aurentia, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Trichoderma viride in soil and their consequent effect on growth and plant biomass of papaya was studied under glass house conditions. The AM fungus was inoculated singly and in combinations with PGPR&rsquo;s. The plants showed maximum plant height treated with Glomus mosseae and Frateuria aurentia with single inoculation followed by Glomus mosseae + Pseudomonas fluorescens and Glomus mosseae with Phosphate solubilising bacteria (Bacillus subtilis). Dual inoculation with PGPR showed increased in dry matter yield than uninoculated control plants.
