Inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth promoting bacteria in peanut crop (Arachis hypogaea L.)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. cv Spanish-Valencia) is a crop that has a great commercial relevance and a high nutritional value. In order to evaluate arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Glomus cubense) effect and plant growth promoting rhizobacterium in peanut crop, this research in La Esperanza farm was developed. Glomus cubense strain was reproduced by arbuscular mycorrhizae laboratory and AZOFERT® was obtained from Physiology and Biochemistry Vegetable Department. Four treatments were used: absolute control, Glomus cubense, AZOFERT® and Glomus cubense + AZOFERT®. Two evaluation were carried out one to 45 days after seeding and the other one in the harvest. Fungal, growth and nodulation indicators and yield were determined. Data were analized by STATGRAPHICS statistic program for Windows. Results showed positive effect of Glomus cubense and AZOFERT® inoculations. Glomus cubense + AZOFERT® coinoculation obtained 1658 kg ha-1 yield. Application of these products can be an alternative to peanut production in current conditions.
