Abstract: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), a dynamic micro-symbiont form an intimate link between the soil environment and plant-root-systems and provide them better adaptability especially in stress agro-ecosystems. Different wheat based cropping systems were studied for AMF associations. A wide variability was observed for both spore density and root colonization by AMF in wheat based cropping systems. Thirty seven species representing five genera were isolated from rhizosphere soils of different wheat based crop-sequences including Mehsana, Sabarkantha and Banaskantha districts of North Gujarat. Among the AM species isolated from rhizosphere soils under different crop sequences, Glomus was found dominating which recorded 18 species followed by Acaulospora (10), Sclerocystis (4), Gigaspora (3) and Scutellospora (3). In general, Glomus mossae, G. hoi, G. fasciculatum, Acaulospora sporocarpia and A. elegans are the dominating AMF species frequently occurred. About 6-10 times higher sporulation was observed compared to no AMF application in wheat. Five most efficient AMF species namely Glomus mossae, G. constrictum, G. fasciculatum, G. intraradice and G. restrictum were identified having compassion with wheat. Not Available |
