Abstract

The effect of various pH (5·5, 6·5, 7·5 and 8·5) and temperature (20, 25 and 30°C) on germination of spores ofGlomus fasciculatum on 1% water agar was studied. Maximum germination (81·3%) occurred at pH 6·5 at 25°C. Spore germination was also studied with other nutrient media such as corn meal agar, modified Hepper medium, charcoal agar (0·01%) and soil extract agar. A significant increase was observed in charcoal agar and soil extract agar (+13·4% and +10·9% respectively).
