“…The presence of mycorrhizas in soils varying in pH from acidic to calcareous, of low to moderate organic matter and of low to high available P suggests. Roots of physic nut were colonized by AMF and infection levels ranged from 38 to 94% of root length [4]. Thus, physic nut may be highly dependent on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.…”

“…Sorghum had a higher percent colonization (68%) and sporulation (175 spores per gram soil) for E. colombiana (CMU05) than other host plants. With the potential to produce higher spore yields, Sorghum is required for S. heterogama [5]. Lin Jing et al (2010) isolated 4 species of spores and identified 2 species of Gigaspora，1 speices of Glomus and 1 species of Acaulospora in the rhizospheric soil of physic nut in Renhe Distriction of Panzhihua City.…”

Physic nut (Jatropha curcas Linn., Euphorbiaceae) is one of the hottest biomass energy plant studied by scientists. This paper first reviewed the symbiosis relationship between physic nut and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The researches have showed that diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) exists around the rhizosphere of physic nut. The AMF hyphae colonize root tips of physic nut to develop arbuscular mycorrhizae. The construction of mycorrhizal symbiosis relationship improves the nutritional absorption, promotes the growth and development of seedlings, and enhance the stress tolerance capacity of physic nut. This paper also displays a prospect for mycorrhizal physic nut research in the future, such as mycorrhizal system, the molecular mechanism for stress resistance and gene engineering. As an important resource of biomass energy, mycorrhizal physic nut has a huge exploitation potential and practical value.
