Abstract: GUAREZO, GLEN LINO, G. "Effect of Vesicular-Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Root Inoculant on the Growth of Jatropha (Jatropha curcas) Seedlings" Undergraduate thesis. Bachelor of Science in Biology, Major in General Biology, Cavite State University, Inching, Cavite. April 2007. Adviser: Dr. Yolanda A. Ilagan The effects of VAM root inoculant on the growth of Jatropha (Jatropha curcas) seedlings were evaluated from November 2006 to January 2007. A total of 75 seedlings were arranged in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and three replications. Treatments evaluated were as follows: Tl-Unsterilized soil without VAM and fertilizer, T2- Sterilized soil without VAM and fertilizer, T3-Sterilized soil with VAM inoculant, T4-Sterilized soil with VAM inoculant + Fertilizer, and T5-Sterilized soil + Fertilizer. Significant results were obtained in the average height of plant, stem diameter, leaf number, total fresh weight and shoot fresh weight. Results showed the redundancy of applying fertilizer on the plant already with YAM inoculation. Growth of inoculated seedlings was comparable to those of uninoculated seedlings and with addition of fertilizer. Uninoculated seedlings grown without fertilizer had the slowest rate of plant growth.
