The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on micropropagated banana plantlets was evaluated during the acclimatization period. Plants were inoculated with Acaulospora scrobiculata, Glomus elarum or Glomus etunicatum. After cultivation in a greenhouse for 3 months, height, leaf area, fresh weight and dry matter of root and shoots, levei of AMF colonization, nutrient levei, photosynthesis and transpiration rate, water potential and stomatal conductance were measured. The number of AMF spores produced in each treatment was also determined. Plantlets inoculated with AMF had greater height, leaf area and fresh weight of shoots and roots, as well as higher rates of photosynthesis and transpiration than controls. Plants inoculated with Glomus were superior in most of the evaluated parameters.

-The objective of this work was to evaluate the spore density and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in soil aggregates from fields of "murundus" (large mounds of soil) in areas converted and not converted to agriculture. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with five replicates, in a 5x3 factorial arrangement: five areas and three aggregate classes (macro-, meso-, and microaggregates). The evaluated variables were: spore density and diversity of AMF, total glomalin, total organic carbon (TOC), total extraradical mycelium (TEM), and geometric mean diameter (GMD) of soil aggregates. A total of 21 AMF species was identified. Spore density varied from 29 to 606 spores per 50 mL of soil and was higher in microaggregates and in the area with 6 years of conversion to agriculture. Total glomalin was higher between murundus in all studied aggregate classes. The area with 6 years showed lower concentration of TOC in macroaggregates (8.6 g kg -1) and in microaggregates (10.1 g kg -1). TEM was greater at the top of the murundus in all aggregate classes. GMD increased with the conversion time to agriculture. The density and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal spores change with the conversion of fields of murundus into agriculture.Index terms: diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, geometric mean diameter, total glomalin, total mycelium, total organic carbon.

RESUMOO potencial da cultura do amendoim forrageiro associada aos fungos micorrízicos arbusculares (FMA) tem sido objeto de alguns estudos, porém a influência do genótipo sobre essa associação é pouco relatada. O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar a densidade de esporos, riqueza de espécies, a frequência e ocorrência relativa de FMAs associados a genótipos de amendoim forrageiro. Foram coletadas amostras simples de solo de 45 genótipos pertencentes ao Banco Ativo de Germoplasma na Embrapa Acre. As amostras de solo foram coletadas a 5 cm de profundidade, com três repetições em delineamento inteiramente casualizado. As amostras de solo foram levadas para o Laboratório de Micorrizas da Embrapa Agrobiologia, para determinação da densidade de esporos e identificação das espécies de FMAs. Foi realizada análise de variância e teste de Scott-Knott. Destacaram-se quatro genótipos de A. pintoi e dois híbridos interespecíficos, que apresentaram maior densidade de esporos. Foi verificada a ocorrência de 21 espécies de FMAs nas amostras de solo. A riqueza variou entre três e dez espécies. Três espécies de FMAs apresentaram elevada frequência relativa: Glomus macrocarpum (100,0%), Acaulospora tuberculata (97,8%) e Racocetra verrucosa (88,99%). Conclui-se, assim que: (i) Existe variabilidade genética entre os genótipos de amendoim forrageiro quanto à promoção da esporulação e riqueza de espécies de FMAs nas suas rizosferas; (ii) As espécies de FMAs Glomus macrocarpum, Acaulospora tuberculata, Racocetra verrucosa possuem alta presença na rizosfera dos genótipos de amendoim forrageiro, devendo serem estudadas visando sua introdução na cultura. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Arachis pintoi, Arachis repens, micorrizas, levantamento taxonômico, GlomeromycotaRichness and frequency of species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in forage peanut genotypes in Acre, northern Brazil ABSTRACTThe potential of the forage peanut crop associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has been the subject of some studies, but the influence of the genotype on this association is poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine the spore density, species richness, relative frequency and occurrence of AMF associated with forage peanut genotypes. Simple soil samples were collected from 45 genotypes of Active Germplasm Bank at Embrapa Acre. Soil samples were collected at 5 cm depth, with three replicates in a completely randomized design. Soil samples were taken to the Mycorrhizae Laboratory of Embrapa Agrobiologia for determination of spore density and identification of AMF species. Analysis of variance and ScottKnott test were performed. Four genotypes of A. pintoi and two interspecific hybrids, which showed higher spore density, stood out. It was found the occurrence of 21 AMF species in the soil samples. The richness ranged between three and ten species. Three AMF species showed high relative frequency: Glomus macrocarpum (100.0%), Acaulospora tuberculata (97.8%) and Racocetra verrucosa (88.9%). It was concluded that: (i) Regarding inducement ...
