Abstract: 
In a seven week pot experiment the influence of the VA-Mycorrhiza on P uptake and water stress tolerance of corn was investigated. During the eight day water stress period the VAM-plants took up less phosphorus than the control plants. However, during the successive five day recovery period under a normal water regime the VAM-plants showed an increased root growth and an enhanced phosphorus uptake compared with the control plants. The free prolin concentration was lower in leaves of VAM-plants than in those of nonmycorrhizal plants at the end of the water stress period, pointing to a different water stress tolerance.
