Endomikoriza yang Berasosiasi dengan Tanaman Pertanian Non-legum di Lahan Pertanian Daerah Transmigrasi Koya Barat, Kota Jayapura
Abstract: Endomycorrhiza palys
important role in nutrient uptake of agricultural plant. The purpose of this
study was to investigate the presence of endomycorrhiza associated with
non-legume plants, i.e.:Zea mays L., Solanum lycopersicum L., Capsicum
frutescens L., Brassica oleracea L. and Brassica juncea (L.) Czern, in agricultural area in Koya Barat, Jayapura.
Survey was done before collecting root and soil samples. The root of those
non-legume plants were cleaned and stained using method developed by Kormanic
and Mc.Graw. Wet seaving method was done to analyze soil samples. The result
showed that those non-legume plants were infected by endomycorrhiza. The
highest infection percentage was on corn (Zea mays L.), while the lowest was on
cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.). Furthermore, from spore identification, 14
species of endomycorrhiza were found on the rhizosphere of those plants which
were grouped into genus Glomus (5 species), Gigaspora (2 species), Acaulospora
(2 species) and Scutelospora (1), however 4 species were remain unidentified
yet. Therefore further study should be done to elucidate this problem.
