Effect of inoculation with npk fertilizer and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on growth and yield of cassava

Abstract: 

The present investigation was undertaken to study the effect of inoculation with NPK fertilizer and Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on growth and yield of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The growth attributes like shoot length, total number of leaves, number of roots per plant and root length and yield attributes, like number of tubers, tuber yield and starch content were noticed maximum under increased 100 per cent NPK with AM fungi inoculated plants. The application of 50 per cent of recommended dose of NPK fertilizer with AM fungi inoculation will results in improved growth and yield of cassava.
