Abstract
An experiment was carried out to determine the symbiotic effect of mycorrhiza on the yield and root characteristics of Sorghum vulgare under water stress. The experiment was carried out in a factorial test using a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) in three replications. Treatments were conducted base on drought stress in four levels and mycorrhiza were applied in two ranges M1(inoculated by mycorrhiza) and M0 (non-mycorrhiza). The Results showed that, the drought stress had significant influences on dry matter of shoot, length of the root and percentage of the mycorrhiza colonization. It seemed that, the mycorrhiza had significantly increased the biomass of sorghum by influences on the root characteristics, such as: root length, colonization and root/shoot ratio.
