The first DNA sequences obtained from arbuscular endomycorrhizal fungi are reported. They were obtained by directly sequencing overlapping amplified fragments of the nuclear genes coding for the small subunit rRNA. These sequences were used to develop a polymerase chain reaction primer (VANS1) that enables the specific amplification of a portion of the vesicular-arbuscular endomycorrhizal fungu...

One filed experiment was carried out to study the effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza fungi and three preceding winter crops, i.e., Meskawy cultivar Egyptian clover berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum L.), Careem sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) Sakha 94 wheat (Triticum aestivum) five fertilizer combinations as treatments NPK mineral bio which included 100% (T1), 75% + arbuscular mycorrhiza (AMFs) (T2), 50% ...

Many studies describe the positive effect of mycorrhiza, but few report on negative effects. Furthermore, there is a research gap mechanisms under which conditions symbiotic mycorrhizal plant interaction or parasitic one predominates. The study was conducted as field experiment over three years to investigate mycorrhiza (Rhizoglomus intraradices) and soil bacteria applications fertile soil. A s...

One benefit of incorporating poultry wastes and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) into soils is an increase in crop yield. However, experimental results vary depend on the kind wastes, setup, characteristics soil. Thus, underlying causes have not yet been fully understood. In other circumstances, inoculation amendment with may clear impact or negative impacts soil microbes plant growth. The e...

In this study seven plant species were collected from the forest of Arasbaran located in the northwest of Iran. Sampling was conducted in May and August and roots were used for calculating vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization percentage during the same period. Fine roots were separated, washed and put in FAA solution as a fixative. Through the time, root colonization of all plant speci...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) improve plant growth and may be useful in maintaining even restoring soil. However, data on the latter function are sparse only indirect, which is especially true for conventional management conditions with adequate nutrient availability. Our study focused utilizing prevalent AMF species, Funneliformis mosseae, to enhance Glycine max production, while also exp...
