Abstract: AMBAS, SAMANTHA ANGELA MARIE E., ILAGAN SOFIA NICOLE L.LEGASPI, MYKA ELIN P. Growth Response of Papaya (Carica papaya L.) Seedlings on Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (VAM) Root Inoculation. Research Study. General Science Curriculum, Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2016. Adviser: Dr. Adolfo Manuel Ir This study was conducted at the Central Experiment Station of Cavite State University from October 2015 to February 2016. The study aimed to: 1. determine the etfects of Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Root Inoculant (VAMRI) on the papaya seedlings in terms of height of plants, biomass (dry weight) of roots, length of roots and number of leaves; 2. determine the percentage root infection of papaya seedlings by VAMRi; and 3. determine the number of days the seedling can survive without water. The VAM used in the study was acquired from BIOTECH, University of the Philippines Los Banos, College, Laguna. This study used the Complete Randomized Design with four treatments and four replications with 15 samples each replication. The treatments were: Treatment 0 (T.) uninoculated, unsterilized soil, Treatment 1 (T)) - inoculated, unsterilized soil. Treatment 2 (T2) — inoculated, sterilized soil, and Treatment 3 (T3) — uninoculated, sterilized soil. Among the four treatments, Ty yielded the tallest plants, heaviest roots. Most abundant number of leaves, and longest roots. This showed that inoculation of VAM did not affect the growth of papaya seedlings. Since To showed the best growth. they also survived the longest days without water. In terms of percentage root infection. T; got the highest infection. This revealed that sterilization of soil was not needed for enhancement of fungal infection in papaya roots.
