Abstract
Greenhouse studies were conducted under nursery conditions to understand the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and different carrier materials on Phyllanthus emblica L. The seedlings raised with the inoculation of AM fungi and vermicompost showed a significant increase in dryweight of shoot and ischolar_main, and phosphorus nutrition in shoots compared to uninoculated/control plants, However, the inoculation of AM fungi with peat and perlite, andAMfungi alone does not showmuch favourable results. AM fungi with vermicompost showed increased per cent ischolar_main colonization and spore number/ 50 g of soil. It can be concluded that AM fungi (Glomus fasciculatum) with carrier material of vermicompost is a good inoculant for Phyllanthus emblica at nursery level.
