Fungal inoculation increased rice height significantly, with the highest recorded at 71.10±16.73cm.
Rice grown with the A. albida consortium yielded 314.40±51.50 kg/ha, significantly outperforming the control.
Analysis of variance showed significant differences in growth and yield parameters among treatments.
Principal component analysis revealed A. albida's dominant contribution to growth variation, accounting for 99.75%.
