Description
Summary:<p>In a green house at the National Center of Research of Agrobiology (CNPAB/EMBRAPA), the effect of the inoculation of Arbuscular Micorrhizal Fungi (AMF) in the production of <em>Peltogyne venosa a</em>nd <em>Sclerolobium paniculatum</em> was evaluated. The experimental design was completely randomized with 4 treatments (<em>Glomus clarum</em> Nicolson &amp; Schenk, <em>Gigaspora margarita</em> Becke Hall, native mycorrhizae and controls - without inoculation) and 25 repetitions. One hundred sixty eight days after seed germination, it was observed that the treatments did not affect seedling growth, except for <em>P. venosa</em> inoculated with <em>G. margarita</em>, which had a larger production of dry weight of fine roots. Seedlings of <em>P.</em> <em>venosa</em> and <em>S. paniculatum</em> inoculated with <em>G. clarum</em> and native mycorrhizae had the largest percentages of micorrhizal colonization. In both species studied, the largest survival percentages was of seedlings inoculated with native mycorrhizae.</p>
