Peranan Fungi Mikoriza Arbuskular (FMA) dan Serasah Daun Gamal (Gliricidia sepium L.) terhadap Pertumbuhan Bawang Merah (Allium cepa L.) pada Tanah Podzolik Merah Kuning
Abstract: The aim of study was
to know the effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi (AMF), Glomus mosseae on the
growth of onion Allium cepa L. on red-yellow podzolic soils. Completely
Randomized Design (CRD) factorial with 10 replicates was used in this
experiment. The first factor was mycorrhizae, with two level: without
inoculation as a control (M0); 10 gram inoculation = M1). The second factorwas
leaf litter of gamal Gliricidia sepium L. species wich were no litter as S0; 5 gram litter =
S1; S2 was 10 gram of litter; and 20 grams of loitter in one kilogram of soil
separately. Parameters used in this study were the growth of onion that has
infected root in percent, and Relative Growth Rate (RGR). ANOVA was used to
analyze the data, and followed with DMRT at 95% level test. The result showed
that mycorrhizal inoculation increased root and shoot fresh weight, the dry
weight of shoot; and the percentage of root infection on the onion. While the
leaf litter of gamal increased only in leaf area. In contrast mycorrhizal
inoculation and gamal leaf litter and their combination had no effect on other
growth parameters.
