PENGUJIAN EFEKTIVITAS BEBERAPA ISOLAT CENDAWAN MIKORIZA ARBUSKULA (CMA) TERHADAP BIBIT PISANG (Musa AAB RAJA NANGKA) ASAL KULTUR JARINGAN

An experiment to investigate the affectivity five isolat of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on the growth of banana (Musa sp.) obtained from tissue culture had been conducted at the Plant Biotechnology laboratory, Glasshouse, and Experimental farm of the Faculty of Agriculture Jambi University. The results showed that there were five mycorrhizal isolates that can be tested for their affectivity on banana seedlings. The growth responses of the seedlings inoculated with AMF was higher than those non-inoculated seedlings due to higher rate of nutrient uptake. Each kind of AMF possesses different level of effectiveness on banana seedling. The application of single isolate Glomus sp-1 at acclimatization time resulted that highest effectiveness.

Mycorrhizal Plants

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate symbionts of higher plants which increase the growth and nutrient uptake of host plants. The primary objective was initiated based on analyzing the enormity of optimal effects upon AMF inoculation in a comparative bias between mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants stipulated on plant biomass and nutrient uptake. Consequently, in accomplishing the above-mentioned objective a vast literature was collected, analyzed, and evaluated to establish a weighted meta-analysis irrespective of AMF species, plant species, family and functional group, and experimental conditions in the context of beneficial effects of AMF. I found a significant increase in the shoot, root, and total biomass by 36.3%, 28.5%, and, 29.7%, respectively. Moreover, mycorrhizal plants significantly increased phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium uptake by 36.3%, 22.1%, and 18.5%, respectively. Affirmatively upon cross-verification studies, plant growth parameters intensification was accredited to AMF (Rhizophagus fasciculatus followed by Funniliforme mosseae), plants (Triticum aestivum followed by Solanum lycopersicum), and plant functional groups (dicot, herbs, and perennial) were the additional vital important significant predictor variables of plant growth responses. Therefore, the meta-analysis concluded that the emancipated prominent root characteristics, increased morphological traits that eventually help the host plants for efficient phosphorus uptake, thereby enhancing plant biomass. The present analysis can be rationalized for any plant stress and assessment of any microbial agent that contributes to plant growth promotion.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) arebeneficial microbes for plants, especially in theabsorption of nutrients and water from the soil.Some factors that influence the effectiveness of thisfungus are the suitability of the AMF species withtheir host plants and abiotic condition such as soilcharacteristics. Therefore, this study aims todetermine the type of AMF that produced the bestgrowth and nutrient uptake in oil palm seedlingsplanting in histosol soil. This study used a singlefactor treatment design consisting of 9 AMFtreatments, namely control without AMF (T1),given Glomus sp. (T2), Gigaspora sp. (T3),Entrophospora sp. (T4), Acaulospora sp. (T5), amixture of Glomus sp. and Gigaspora sp. (T6), amixture of Glomus sp. and Entrophospora sp. (T7),a mixture of Gigaspora sp. and Entrophospora sp.(T8), and a mixture of Glomus sp., Gigaspora sp.,Entrophospora sp., and Acaulospora sp. (T9). Eachtreatment was repeated five times. Theexperimental design used was a randomized blockdesign. In the AMF treatment, 500 spores perseedling were given when the seedlings weretransplanted from prenursery to the main nursery.The seedlings were kept in the prenursery for 3.5months and in the main nursery for nine months.The results showed that the type of mycorrhizaethat consistently produced better seedling growthand nutrients uptake compared to the control wereGlomus sp. (T2) and a mixture of Gigaspora sp.and Entrophospora sp. (T8), which supported bydata on plant height, number of leaves, shoot dryweight, and total nutrient uptake of N, P, K, Ca,Mg, and B
