Introduction of Mycorrhizae Propagules and Rhizobium as Growth Promoter Legumes on Marginal Lands.

Abstract

The objectives of this study is to evaluate the effect of mycorrhizae propagules and rhizobium on the growth on legume plants (Arachis hypogea) in marginal land. The experiment was conducted in Nguter village Lumajang, East Java. The results showed that mycorrhizae propagules stimulated rhizobium and plant growth by increasing plant height, dry weight and nodule weight. This results implied that mycorrhizae propagules stimulated and rhizobium were advantageous promoting growth at marginal lands.


Keywords: Mycorhiza propagul, Rhizobium, legume and Marginal land
