Research Project:
The Role and Utilization of Mycorrhizal Fungi in Agriculture
Location:
Microbial Biophysics and Residue Chemistry Research
Project Number: 1935-12000-007-05
Project Type:
Start Date: Jan 15, 2004
End Date: Jan 14, 2006
Objective:
The objective of this cooperative research project is to investigate the impacts of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in agriculture and further explore the impacts of modern agricultural practices upon indigenuous AM fungi in soils of The Rodale Institute.
Approach:
To investigate the impact of farming practices upon soil biological processes, particlarly the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis. To expand the work on the on-farm production of AM fungus inoculum to include studies of the utilization of this inoculum in crop production.
