Arbuscular Mycorrhiza has been known to play a significant role in enhancing growth nutrient uptake and improve soil physical properties. Application of oil palm by-product viz. Palm Oil Mill Effluent to the soil also has been documented the most common rehabilitation practices in improving physical chemical and biological conditions. In this study a pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza AM and Palm Oil Mill Effluent POME in enhancing the physico -chemical properties of sandy tailing soil 98.18 sand 1.62 clay and 0.20 silt using chilli as the indicator plant. The experiment was a factorial arranged in a randomized block design with treatment comprising AM with or without it five levels of POME 0 ton 15 ton 30 ton 60 ton and 100 ton ha- and five replications. There was a significant interaction between AM and POME on spore count and root infection. AM fungi also influenced Mg concentration in leachate and the soil aggregate stability.

Abstract

Arbuscular Mycorrhiza has been known to play a significant role in enhancing growth nutrient uptake and improve soil physical properties. Application of oil palm by-product viz. Palm Oil Mill Effluent to the soil also has been documented the most common rehabilitation practices in improving physical chemical and biological conditions. In this study a pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza AM and Palm Oil Mill Effluent POME in enhancing the physico -chemical properties of sandy tailing soil 98.18 sand 1.62 clay and 0.20 silt using chilli as the indicator plant. The experiment was a factorial arranged in a randomized block design with treatment comprising AM with or without it five levels of POME 0 ton 15 ton 30 ton 60 ton and 100 ton ha- and five replications. There was a significant interaction between AM and POME on spore count and root infection. AM fungi also influenced Mg concentration in leachate and the soil aggregate stability.
