This study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus </span><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Glomus clarum</em></span><span style="font-size: small;"> and the application of organic compost on the growth and phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) </span><span style="font-size: small;">absorption,</span><span style="font-size: small;"> in physic nut seedlings. A randomized experimental blocks design, in a 5x2 factorial scheme, was used, with the evaluation of organic compost levels (0 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, 15 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, 30 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, 60 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, and 120 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">) and presence or absence of </span><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Glomus clarum</em></span><span style="font-size: small;">, with four replications. Physic nut seedlings inoculated with </span><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Glomus clarum</em></span><span style="font-size: small;"> presented, at levels of 15 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1 </span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">of organic compost, the lowest height (20%), 120 days after sowing. However, the basal diameter increased, at levels of 30 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> (21%) and 120 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> (33%) of organic compost, 60 days after sowing. Only in the treatment with </span><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Glomus clarum</em></span><span style="font-size: small;">, physic nut seedlings showed increasing linear regression adjustment in the dry matter of stem (R</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">2</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> = 0.99), aerial part (R</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">2</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> = 0.98), roots (R</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">2</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> = 0.95), and whole plant (R</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">2</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> = 0.97), depending on the organic compost levels. Physic nut seedlings inoculated with </span><span style="font-size: small;"><em>Glomus clarum</em></span><span style="font-size: small;"> showed increases in P content of the aerial part of 93%, 37%, 57%, and 51%, for levels of 15 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, 30 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, 60 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;">, and 120 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> of organic compost, respectively. For the N content, such increases were 50% and 45%, at levels of 0 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> and 60 t ha</span><sup><span style="font-size: small;">-1</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> of organic compost, respectively.</span></span></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 120%; text-decoration: none;" lang="pt-BR" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="color: #000000;"><span><span style="font-size: small;">KEY-WORDS: <em>Jatropha curcas</em> L.; biofuel; <em>Glomus clarum</em>; seedlings quality.</span></span></span></p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 120%; text-decoration: none;" lang="pt-BR" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="color: #000000;"><span><span style="font-size: small;">A espécie pinhão manso têm se mostrado bastante promissora para a produção de biodiesel. O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar o efeito da inoculação do fungo micorrízico arbuscular <em>Glomus clarum</em> e da aplicação de composto orgânico sobre o crescimento e absorção de fósforo (P) e nitrogênio (N), em mudas de pinhão manso. Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso, em esquema fatorial 5x2, sendo avaliados os fatores doses de composto orgânico (0 t ha<sup>-1</sup>, 15 t ha<sup>-1</sup>, 30 t ha<sup>-1</sup>, 60 t ha<sup>-1</sup> e 120 t ha<sup>-1</sup>) e presença ou ausência do inoculante <em>Glomus clarum</em>, com quatro repetições. As mudas de pinhão manso inoculadas com <em>Glomus clarum </em>apresentaram, na dose de 15 t ha<sup>-1</sup> de composto orgânico, menor altura (20%), aos 120 dias após a semeadura. No entanto, o diâmetro, à altura do colo, foi maior, nas doses de 30 t ha<sup>-1</sup> (21%) e 120 t ha<sup>-1</sup> (33%) de composto orgânico, aos 60 dias após a semeadura. Apenas no tratamento com <em>Glomus Clarum</em>, mudas de pinhão manso apresentaram ajuste de regressão linear crescente, na matéria seca de caule (R<sup>2 </sup>= 0,99), parte aérea (R<sup>2 </sup>= 0,98), raízes (R<sup>2 </sup>= 0,95) e planta inteira (R<sup>2 </sup>= 0,97), em função das doses de composto orgânico. Mudas de pinhão manso inoculadas com <em>Glomus clarum</em> apresentaram incrementos nos teores de P da parte aérea de 93%, 37%, 57% e 51%, para as doses de 15 t ha<sup>-1</sup>, 30 t ha<sup>-1</sup>, 60 t ha<sup>-1</sup> e 120 t ha<sup>-1</sup> de composto orgânico, respectivamente. Para os teores de N, tal incremento foi de 50% e 45%, nas doses de 0 t ha<sup>-1 </sup>e 60 t ha<sup>-1</sup> de composto orgânico, respectivamente.</span></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 120%; text-decoration: none;" lang="pt-BR" align="JUSTIFY"><span style="color: #000000;"><span><span style="font-size: small;">PALAVRAS-CHAVE: <em>Jatropha curcas </em>L.; biocombustível; <em>Glomus clarum</em>; qualidade de mudas.</span></span></span></p>
