Increase production of arachis pintoi and stenotaphrum secundatum within coconut trees by using of indigenous arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF)

Abstract

Abstract The study was done in order to determine the effect of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) addition in the soil on plant height, fresh weight, dry matter yield and botanical composition of mixed plants of A. pintoi legume and Stenotaphrum secundatum grass within coconut trees. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used in this experiment, with 4 treatments as follows: T0 = 0 gr AMF, T1 = 5 gr AMF, T2 =10 gr AMF and T3 = 15 gr AMF, 5 replications each treatment. So, there were 20 of expe…
