Abstract
Cassava is an important food base and an excellent alternative source of carbohydrates, especially in developing countries. As it is an easy-to-manage crop, it can be grown in small areas and does not require high soil fertility. This culture has a symbiotic relationship with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), which expand the extent of the roots by the projection of their hyphae, which favors the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil and with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The objective of this work was to evaluate the interaction of nitrogen-fixing bacteria with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi at the initial stage of cassava culture. The following parameters were evaluated: the day of sprouting, plant height, root length, plant volume, colonization rate of mycorrhizal fungi and the genera of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Plants inoculated with AMF and diazotrophic bacteria presented the lowest day of sprouting, the highest plant height and longer root length. Mycorrhizal interactions with and without inoculation with nitrogen-fixing bacteria were classified, and mycorrhizal fungi of the genera Acaulospora, Diversispora, Glomus and Gigaspora were classified.
