Abstract

An experiment was conducted to find out the best substrate for quick VAM fungi inoculum production. Different substrates viz, compost, composted pressmud, composted coirpith. vermiculite, perlite and vermiculite-perlite (1:1) were serceened in this study. The result revealed that composted coirpith was found to be superior in terms of infection percentage, extra- matrical hyphae and spore count. The finding indicated that composted coirpith could be employed as a substrate material for VAM fungi inoculum production.

Keywords: VAM inoculum, substrate; inoculum
