Abstract:
Tissue-culture-produced nonmycorrhizal strawberry plants ( Fragaria x awanassa Duchesne ‘Guardian’) were inoculated with spores of the endogonaceous mycorrhizal fungi Glomus mosseae, G. epigaeum , or G. constrictum . The plants were grown for 14 weeks in the greenhouse in a steamed 1 peat: 1 perlite mixture (v:v) containing a slow release fertilizer, 18-6-12 Osmocote (18N-2.6P-10K), 9-month release rate. Inoculated plants were slightly larger than noninoculated control plants. Roots were colonized more by G. mosseae than by G. epigaeum . No evidence of root colonization by G. constrictum was found, but the fungus sporulated.
