Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria and rock phosphate had asynergistic effect on the colonization of plant roots by the AMfungus. There was a positive interaction between the PS bacterium andthe AM fungu in mobilization of rock phosphate, leading to improvedplant P nutrition. In dual inoculation with the AM fungus and the PSbacterium, the main contribution to plant P nutrition was made by theAM fungus. Application of P to be low P soil increased phosphataseactivity In the rhizosphere. Alkaline phosphatase activity wassignificantly promoted by inoculation with either the PS bacterium orthe AM fungus.展开更多
