PENGARUH DUA SPESIES FUNGI MIKORIZA ARBUSKULAR TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN KETAHANAN SEMAI KEMIRI (Aleurites moluccana Willd.) PADA CEKAMAN KEKERINGAN
Abstract: A study on the
effects of two Fungi Mycorrhizal Arbuscular (FMA) species and watering interval
on the growth and resistance of Aleurites moluccana Willd. Seedlings on drought
condition was conducted at the farmers group nursery, Uwemanje village,
Kinovaro district, Sigi regency, Central Sulawesi. The experiment was laid out
in a Randomized Complete Design (RCD) with factorial pattern. First, species of FMA consist of three treatments; without
mycorrhizal inoculation/control (M0), Gigaspora margarita (M1), Glomus mosseae
(M2). Second, watering interval; every day (A0), every three days (A1) and
every six days (A2). 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 interaction between different FMA species and watering
interval had significant effect only on the seedling height increment, fresh
weight of shoot and root and dry weight of shoot and root, but FMA species and
watering interval treatment gave significant difference on the stem diameter
increment and increment of leaf number per plant.The highest growth parameters
was achieved by Gigaspora margarita inoculation compared to Glomus mosseae and
control treatments in all watering intervals.
