| Abstract: | Summary The effect of the inoculum density of vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal endophytes on growth and development in maize was investigated in sterilized soil under glass-house conditions. Mycorrhizal plants grew robust and produced three times more dry weight than non-mycorrhizal plants. 40 or more endophytes per plant produced the highest mycorrhizal association and the maximum growth in maize. The uninoculated plants exhibited the symptoms of chlorosis. |
