Soybean (Glycine max L.), a highly nutritive crop, is
grown both under irrigated and rainfed conditions. The roots of
soybean plants growing in soil provide a unique habitat, the
rhizosphere, which is particularly favourable for the development
of soil microorganisms. Intense biological interactions in the
rhizosphere are of common phenomenon among the rhizosphere
mycoflora. Quantitative and qualitative rhizosphere mycoflora
and their biological interactions influence the growth and
development of seedlings. Therefore, the present study was
undertaken to ascertain the influence of soybean rhizosphere
mycoflora on seed germinability, root and shoot length and
thereby seedling vigour of soybean during the year 2007-08.
