Abstract

A pot culture experiment was carried out to assess effect of Mycorrhizal fungi, Farm Yard Manure, Neem seed cake and combination of AM+FYM+ Neem seed cake on Trigonella foenum-graecum L. Plastic pots of 5 kg soil capacity were used for growing Trigonella seeds. Four sets were made for further experimentation. Each set included three control and three replicates. In the first set of an experiment three experimental pots were filled with mixture containing autoclave sterile garden soil and AM fungi in 9:1 ratio, control plants of all four sets filled only with garden soil. The second set included garden soil and FYM in 9:1 ratio. Garden soil and Neem seed cake was filled in third set with 9:1 ratio whereas forth set was filled with mixture of Garden soil with AM+FYM+Neem seed cake in 9:1 ratio. All plants further assessed for morphological parameters and biochemical contents.
