Abstract
Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungi (AM fungi) promote plant growth and enhance nutrient uptake under unfavorable conditions. The present study investigates the interactions between AM fungi and rhizospheric fungi in sugarcane soil samples from sugarcane Pusa, Samastipur, districts, India. Sugarcane is the major crop mainly cultivated in these regions. Mycorrhizae and rhizosphere fungi were examined by isolating fungi from the soil of AM fungal infected and uninfected sugarcane crop field, 14 fungi belonging to nine genera isolates were obtained from the soil sample of AM fungi infected plant, on the other hand uninfected sugarcane yielded, 22 fungi belonging to 16 genera. In all, 10 fungi were common in both the rhizospheric soil of AM fungi-infected and uninfected sugarcane plants. The frequency and abundance of rhizospheric fungi were lower in plants infected by AM fungi than in plants without mycorrhizal infections. Furthermore, the presence of wilt-causing organisms and parasitic fungi was significantly lower in the soil of AM fungi-infected plants, while saprophytic organisms were more abundant. The frequency of different rhizosphere fungi during different months in a year fluctuated from 175 to 794 in AM fungi-infected plants, while the occurrence of different soil fungal isolates in the soil of non-infected plants fluctuated from 199 to 1,041. Parasitic fungi were almost eliminated from the soil of AM fungi-mediated plants. The results showed a significant interaction between AM fungi intensity and rooting time colonization compared to the control sample. Therefore, the present study data provides detailed knowledge on AM fungal inoculum and its effect on plant growth in a specific area.
