Pemanfaatan Bahan Bio-anorganik untuk Memproduksi Biomassa Hijauan Pakan dan Inokulan Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskula
Abstract: Inoculant production
of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has a vital role in sustaining of higher
forage legume production. Currently, it is important to find the alternative
materials that can be used as sources of phosphorus due to the need of lower
cost, environmentaly friendly, and easily available. Bone meal and rock
phosphate are some of the bio-inorganic sources that can be used as a phosphorus
source for producing biomass of forage legume and AMF's inoculant production. A
glasshouse experiment was conducted to determine the effectiveness of different
type of bio-inorganic materials as a fertilizer to increase forage legume
biomass and for specific AMF's inoculant production. The experiment was
arranged in a factorial randomized block design with two factors, i.e. type of
AMF's species (Glomus etunicatum NPI-126 and Acaulospora tuberculata INDO-2)
and type of bio-inorganic materials (artifical fertilizer solution as a
control, SP36, rock phosphate, and bone meal).
Results showed that G. etunicatum gave better result in terms of host
gowth, root colonization and spore production compare to A. tuberculata. Bone
meal was better a phosphorus source for AMF's inoculant production instead of
artifical fertilizer or other bio-anorganic sources. In conclusion, milled bone
meal has a good phosphorus source for AMF's (G. etunicatum) inoculant
production
