Abstract
Strawberry seedling were inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense and Glomus intraradix, separately and altogether. The bacteria colonize the roots increasing the number and size of root hairs, producing branched, curled and spatulated development, among other morphologies, as well as infection-thread formation in some of them. VAM fungi normally colonize the roots through the joining of epidermal cells and do not modify the morphology of root hairs. When the inoculation is dual, A. brasilense colonizes the root faster than G. intraradix, nevertheless, both microorganisms interact positively, increasing the internal and external colonization process of the root.
