Abstract
Abstract A study aimed to find out the best medium to promote plant growth and the presence of root nodules of dog fruit seedlings was conducted at Indonesian Tropical Fruit Research Institute (ITFRI) from September 2017 to April 2018. This research was arranged in a randomized block design with 10 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments were 10 compositions of media that consisted of a control medium (soil:cow manure = 1:1 v/v) and 9 other combinations of two or three materials, namely: soil, cow manure, compost, and rice husk charcoal with a ratio of 1:1 (v/v) without and with the addition of mycorrhizae. The results showed that the best media to promote dog fruit seedling growth was soil:rice husk charcoal 1:1 (v/v) and the highest number of root nodules was also found in this medium composition. There was no significant growth difference in dog fruit seedlings at 6 months after planting due to the addition of mycorrhizae. The result of this study can be considered in the selection of medium for better seedling growth of dog fruit.
