| Abstract |
The effect of pea inoculation with VA-mycorrhizal fungi, rock phosphate and mushroom spent compost (MSC) AS an organic matter amendment on the growth of plants and nutrients uptake was studied in a pot experiment. Sampling was carried out after 4,8 and 12 weeks of sowing N,P,K, Mn, Zn and Fe were determined in plent shoots. Mycorrhizal root infection, dry weight of shoots and nodules, total microbial counts and CO2 output were estimated. The results showed that: inoculation with VAM fungi gave a beneficial effects on dry weight of shoot plants without addition or with rock phosphate, (MSC) alone and both of them with an increase of 25.00, 40.53, 43.03 and 36.23 % respectively over than the same uninoculated treatments. Inoculated plants gave the highest value of percentages of root infection with VAM (87%) in the presence of rock phosphate at 12 weeks plant age. Mycorrhizal inoculation had a significant effect on N.P and K uptake by pea plants. The highest uptakes (280, 23.10 and 223.80 mg plant-1) were found in the inoculated plants respectively, in the presence of MSC in N-uptake and rock phosphate with MSC addition in p and K uptake. The highest values of Zn ,Mn and Fe concentration ( 66.3 , 90.3 and 603 ppm ) were found in the inoculated plants, respectively without addition of fertilizer in case of Zn and with both of rock phosphate and MSC in Mn and Fe cases after 8 weeks plant old. Inoculated plants with VAM gave higher increases of number and dry weight of nodules than with the uninoculated control. The highest increases of colony forming units and CO2 output (microbial respiration) were found in the inoculated treatments with (rock phosphate and MSC) after 4 weeks of sowing
