Abstract:Eight commonly available weeds in Mulberry gardens of Doon Valley were studied to assess the VAM status. Root infection percentage and spore numbers were worked out. Cyperus rotundus showed highest (45.8%) root infection. Lowest root infection (24.0 %) was found in case of Digitaria sp. On the other hand Digitaria sp. harboured the highest number of spores in its rhizosphere (247 per 50 g of soil) and Alysicarpus vaginalis lowest spores (40 per 50 g of soil). Glomus was the fungus associated with all the plant… Show more
