Abstract
Spores of Glomus intraradix and Azospirillum brasilense were inoculated on 5 varieties of Strawberry. In all case, both microorganisms develop chitinase expression on plants, finding that the highest values of this enzyme are produced when the inoculation is altogether with both microorganisms. Associated to this process it was found increments in the number of bacteria and nitrogenase activity with the dual inoculation.
