RESPON PERTUMBUHAN SEMAI KEMIRI (Aleurites moluccana Willd.) TERHADAP INOKULASI BEBERAPA SPESIES FUNGI MIKORIZA ARBUSKULAR
Abstract: A study on the
effects of three fungi mycorrhizal arbuscular (FMA) species on the growth of
Aleurites moluccana Willd. Seedlings was conducted at the farmers group
nursery, Uwemanje village, Kinovaro district, Sigi regency, Central Sulawesi.
The purpose of this research was to know the effects of three FMA species on
the growth of A. moluccana Willd. Seedlings. The experiment was laid out in a
Randomized Complete Design(RCD) consist of three treatments; without
mycorrhizal inoculation/control (M0), Glomus mosseae (M1), Glomus etunicatum
(M2) and Glomus deserticola (M3). Five replication of each treatment
combination was used for this study. Observation Parameters consist of seedling
height increment, stem diameter increment, and increment of leaf number per
plant, fresh weight of shoot and root, dry weight of shoot and root, and
seedling quality index. The results showed that inoculation of FMA species had
significant effect on the seedling height increment, stem diameter increment
and increment of leaf number per plant, fresh weight of shoot and root and dry
weight of shoot and root. The highest growth parameters was achieved by Glomus
mosseae inoculation compared to Glomus etunicatum, Glomus deserticola and
control treatments. Therefore, G. mosseae species is recommended for
bio-fertilizer at nursery stage to improve early growth of seedlings.
