Abstract
In a field experiment on an eroded soil, Lotus pedunculatus Cav. cv. Grasslands Maku was successfully inoculated with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi using infested soil pellets. Both mycorrhizal fungi and pellet had a marked effect on plant growth. Unlike the results of previous pot experiments there was no suggestion that mycorrhizas stimulated growth less with the application of 50 kg P/ha than with 10 kg P/ha.Keywords
