Abstract: An experiment was conducted at Horticulture Research Station, Bijapur (Tidagundi) to know the influence of Glomus fasciculatum and bioformulations on growth of jamun stocks. Rootstocks treated with Glomus fasciculatum had registered highest stock height (23.85cm and 30.70cm in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively), stock diameter (6.31mm and 7.56mm in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively) and number of leaves (25.97 and 28.15 in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively) in both in-situ and ex-situ. Among sub-treatments, stocks treated with microbial consortia had recorded significantly highest stock height (23.45cm and 30.52cm in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively) stock diameter (6.19mm and 7.47mm in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively) and number of leaves (24.79 and 26.88 in both in-situ and ex-situ respectively) in organic conditions.
Keywords: Syzygium cuminii, Glomus fasciculatum, Bioformulations
