Abstract: | Several isolates ofPhoma sp., certain nonsporulating fungi, as well asPenicillium andTrichoderma, all isolated from zoysiagrass rhizosphere, promoted growth of wheat and soybean under greenhouse conditions. However, the ability of these rhizosphere fungi to enhance plant growth varied with the crop tested. For example, most of the fungi effectively promoted the growth of wheat, whereas only a few fungi were effective on soybean. In consecutive plantings of wheat and soybean grown in soil previously infested with these zoysiagrass rhizosphere fungi, the growth promotion ability of the fungi was lowered. However, addition of fresh potting medium appeared to restore their growth-promotive effects. It appears that the activation of plant growth-promoting fungi in soil might depend on the availability of organic substrates to colonize, as evidenced by the promotion of plant growth. |
