Inoculation with the mycorrhizal fungus Glomus fasciculatum increased the dry weight and P content of the shoot and root significantly over the uninoculated control. Application of P (22 kg/ha) did not reduce the percentage root colonization by VA mycorrhizal fungi but increased the number of extramatrical chlamydospores in the soil. P application also increased the dry weight and P content of the inoculated plants, suggesting the need for application of P to obtain maximum benefit from VA mycorrhiza in P-fixing soils
