ABSTRACT
The arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis between plants and soil fungi improves different micronutrients under limiting conditions from the soil. The arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) improve soil attributes, increase above- and belowground biodiversity, significantly improve different plant seedlings survival, growth, and establishment on moisture and nutrient-stressed soils. AMF are a group of obligate biotrophs completely depending on host plants for organic carbon, evolutionarily intimately associated with plants, multiple nucleated, and asexually reproducing eukaryotes. AMF are known to play a role in plant nutrition as long as they work in partnership with other soil microbes. Modern agricultural exercise has in numerous instances resulted in progressively reduced AM fungal diversity and frequency. These practices may effect that is believed to be related to tillage methods and to the use of mineral fertilizers. Thus better management of AMF gave a positive role in nutrient cycling and improved soil attributes in integrated nutrient supply to the plants.300
