چکیده
The present study was mainly conducted to investigate the survey of arbuscular mycorrhizal biodiversity in rhizosphere soil and root colonization of medicinal plant species in Sirumalai hills, Eastern Ghats of Dindugul district, Tamilnadu. Soil samples were collected during the month of September 2014 from the surface to 30 cm depth and pH was measured. Rhizosphere soil root of 20 plant species belonging to 20 families were investigated. The present result showed arbuscular mycorrhizal spore population in the rhizosphere soil and root colonization of all the plant species. A total of 39 AM fungal species belonging to six genera were isolated from the rhizosphere soil. The genus Glomus were found dominate followed by Acaulospora, Sclerocystis, Entrophospora and Gigaspora. The maximum spore population was found in the rhizosphere soil of Bacoba moneeri (480.65/100 g soil) which belongs to the family Scorphulariaceae and the least spore population was observed in the Hygrophila auriculata (140.78 /100g soil) belongs to Acanthaceae family. The highest (85.33%) AM fungal infection was found in roots of Mimosa pudica belongs to the family Mimosaceae. While the lowest (17.33%) AM fungal association was found in the root of Oxalis corniculata (L.) belongs to the family Oxalidaceae.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are key components of soil micro-flora and obviously interact with other microorganisms in the rhizosphere which is the zone of influence of plant roots on microbial populations and other soil constituents. Keeping in view the importance of AM fungi, the present study was undertaken for assessing the AM fungal spore population dynamics in the rhizosphere soil and it...
