It was observed that some of the soil types were more suitable for mycorrhizal colonization as well as nodulation. A correlation was found between nutritional status of the soil and mycorrhizal colonization. Effect of Glomus mosseae, G. fasciculatum and Rhizobium leguminosarum P-6-96 was also seen on pea var. Rachna. Highest nodulation was recorded with G. mosseae + G. fasciculatum + P-6-96 treatment. When two species of Glomus were compared, it was found that G. mosseae was better. It was noticed that mycorrhizal colonization enhanced (27.8–28.2%) after treatment with Rhizobium. A tendency of enhancement in mycorrhizal colonization (33.0%) was noticed with the soil amended with the neem leaves along with mycorrhiza.
