Abstract
Aspergillus sp. is well known fungi than can potentially mobilize phosphate from inorganic sources. The present study aimed at utilizing the Aspergillus sp. to enrich the total phosphate content in vermicompost. Phosphate solubilizing Aspergillus sp. was isolated from the vermicompost. The isolate was grown in mass and the spore count was done periodically. Pre-prepared vermicompost was mixed with a spore suspension of Aspergillus sp. at 1x10 spores/g. Treated vermicompost was mixed with soil, for pot culture studies. The composition of phosphate solubilizing fungi with vermicompost showed higher productivity of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (cowpea).
