“…Mycorrhizal fungi are important due to their highest ability to increase growth and establishment with good results in increasing efficiency in plant nutrients uptake from infertile soils, increase water uptake and increased drought resistance in plants ( Van der Heijden et al, 2008;Soliman et al, 2012;Nadeem et al, 2014;Sarkar et al, 2015). The beneficial effect of inoculation at initial stage of plant development is that it can promote AMF symbiosis resulting to increase plant growth in the nursery and improving performance after planting in the field (Kung'u et al, 2008;Wang et al, 2008).…”

“…High root numbers and root weights per rooted cuttings suggest well-developed root system which is a good indicator of field performance (Davis and Jacobs, 2005). It is well documented that AMF stimulates the biomass of the root system, which leads to high nutrient uptake in soils for plants (Fan et al, 2008;Verbruggen et al, 2013;Soliman et al, 2012;Sarkar et al, 2015). Transplanting stem cuttings stock with good root system may give better adaptation in the field and thus ultimately resulting in good performance, survival and growth.…”

In efforts to optimize vegetative propagation of Dalbergia melanoxylon, the effects of inoculation of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on rooting ability of D. melanoxylon stem cuttings treated with auxin Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) were investigated. Three inoculum levels of AMF namely control, 1:1 and 1:2 (v/v) ratio of inoculum to propagation substrate, respectively and two levels of cutting types designated as middle and basal cutting positions were used. Rooting parameters in terms of rooting percentage, root number, root length and root dry weight were evaluated. Analysis of variance revealed that the effect of AMF inoculation was significant (p<0.001) only for percent rooting and root dry weight among the rooting parameters evaluated. The effect of cutting type and the interactive effect of inoculation and cutting type were insignificant for all studied rooting parameters. Comparisons of means by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) for the different treatments revealed that the quantity of inoculum significantly (p<0.05) influenced high performance in all rooting parameters evaluated. The highest percentages in rooting was (67.28%) for the cuttings from basal position. The study has revealed a strong AMF influence on rooting ability of auxin treated stem cuttings in D. melanoxylon. It was concluded that for vegetative propagation, AMF inoculum should be used for auxin treated cuttings to produce high quality planting stock material for the afforestation and conservation programme for D. melanoxylon.

“…This result is in agreement with those of other works. [34,38,40,41] On the contrary, TP in the remaining soil (after harvesting the plants) was the lowest in the NS + AM treatment, where both the colonisation and TP levels in the plants were optimal. These results show that AM fungi have a significant effect on the P absorption of the P. japonica (C4) plant.…”

“…Previous studies documented the same results. [34,36,37] The plants inoculated with AM fungi in NS showed the best performance for total DM production, and the worst performance occurred in the SS. However, in some cases, the AM fungi with SS treatment (SS + AM) outperformed NS.…”

A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on growth, nutrient uptake, and inoculation effectiveness on Phragmites japonica. Spores of AMF strains (Gigaspora margarita Becker & Hall) were collected from the commercial product 'Serakinkon'. Four treatments, namely, natural soil (NS), natural soil inoculated by AM fungi, sterilised soil (SS) inoculated by AM fungi, and SS without AM fungi inoculation were selected to determine the effects of applied and indigenous AMF on P. japonica. The average colonisation level of P. japonica was 24-33%, whereas no colonisation was found in the SS. AMF colonisation increased the chlorophyll content (r = 0.84, p < .01), plant dry mass (r = 0.89, p < .01), and N, P, K, Mg, and Fe concentration of the plant's roots, stems, and leaves when AMF was applied with natural and SS. In all cases, maximum values were found when the plants were applied with NS in combination with AMF, but Ca concentration decreased as the colonisation level increased. Mn concentration decreased in the roots, but increased in the leaves. Cu concentration was not significantly affected by treatments. N-loss minimisation from the soil was significant when the colonisation level was high.
