Keanekaragaman Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskula di bawah Tegakan Jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba) di Madiun, Jawa Timur

Abstract

Plants can grow well when it was supported by the available of soil microbes, one of them was arbuscular mycorrhyzal fungi (AMF). AMF was symbiotic mutualism that it was between fungi and roots. AMF could be symbiotic almost 90% of the high levels of plants, one of them was jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba). The research purposes to identify the diversity of AMF under the jabon stands. The methods which used in this research was the root coloring and decanthing methods. Preservation of spores to identify genus carried on by using polyvinil alcohol lactid acid glyserol (PVLG). The result of this research showed that the chemical content of soil didn’t have effect to the differences of root colonization on each research location. The various genus under jabon stands which are located in Durenan dry land and Sudimoroharjo dry land, such as Glomus, Acalauspora dan Enterospora, meanwhile Sudimoroharjo former rice fields could only be found 2 genus, such as Glomus and Acalauspora. Glomus had very wide spreading and dominate in the research location.
