Agricultural management practices and extreme weather events associated with climate change can influence the diversity abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) potential consequences for crop production. However, importance interactive effects long-term agricultural on AMF communities in soils is not yet fully explored. A short-term drought experiment rainout-shelters was performed wint...

Abstract Purpose Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a key role in medicinal plant species, besides their ecological shaping communities. Knowledge about the diversity and structure of AMF communities associated with endangered Prunus fricana is valuable conservation domestication species for its products. Methods We investigated rhizosphere soils P. africana trees occurring four fragmented...

Mining activities have a positive impact that can generate income for the state, but also cause negative impacts in form of soil damage, vegetation and animal losses to disrupt ecosystems. Therefore, it is necessary carry out reclamation with revegetation using local plant species. PT Berau Coal has conducted sugar palm (Arenga pinnata). The success growth post-mining land influenced by several...

Annual Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) is one of the most widely cultivated garden flowers and highly suitable for loose flower, pot culture bedding purposes. The objective this research was to evaluate effect different mycorrhizal strains vermicompost on growth flowering coronarium. treatments comprise 4 mycorrhiza (No application, Glomus mosseae, Acaulospora laevis, Gigaspora marg...

Peanut has long been cultivated in Indonesia and is generally grown on dry land. The continuous use of inorganic fertilizers can have a negative impact the soil, so there need for environmentally friendly such as biological fertilizers. This study aimed to elucidate effect mycorrhiza biofertilizer vegetative generative growth peanuts. was conducted experimental field Cikabayan IPB with three-fa...

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...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widely distributed in nature. They live in the roots of higher plants, in a symbiotic relationship. In this study, five commercial species of yams (Dioscorea spp.) were inoculated with six species of AMF, Glomus clarum, G. etunicatum, G. fasciculatum, Gigaspora sp., G. mosseae, and Acaulospora sp., in field cultivation conditions to investigate the influen...

In order to quantify the contribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi to plant phosphorus nutrition, the development and extent of the external fungal mycelium and its nutrient uptake capacity are of particular importance. We develop and analyse a model of the growth of AM fungi associated with plant roots, suitable for describing mechanistically the effects of the fungi on solute uptake b...

The main factors affecting the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are host plant, environmental characteristics and geographical location. A better understanding of the influence of land use changes on AMF abundance will help in improving their management, leading to improved plant productivity in soils, and will also be useful in designing more sustainable agronomic management pra...
