“…Wilt is caused by soil-borne pathogenic fungi that infect the host plant via roots, ultimately clogging the vascular system and resulting in yellowing, wilting, and death of the infected plants (Noman et al 2023). F. oxysporum and V. dahliae are found to cause the majority of wilt diseases in a variety of plant species (Usharani et al 2022). AM fungus G. etunicatum BEG168 inoculation on cucumber seeds at the germination stage showed resistance toward F. oxysporum f. sp.…”

Plants witness a variety of disease incidences throughout their life, ultimately resulting in reduced plant growth and productivity. Climate change or human interventions have aggravated the incidences of various plant diseases, among which foliar fungal diseases are serious threats. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are a mutualistic group of organisms that play a significant role in enhancing plant growth and resilience under varied environmental circumstances. Moreover, it is well established that AMF confers tolerance against several foliar fungal diseases. This chapter highlights how fungal foliar diseases affect plant health and the various roles of AMF in providing resistance to different crop plants. In addition, AMF-mediated alterations in the root system architecture (RSA), modulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and reinforcement of the physical barrier that prevents pathogen invasion and establishment have been discussed in detail. Furthermore, the intricate cross talk between AMF and phytohormones or plant metabolites has also been explored. Overall, harnessing the potential of AMF in imparting tolerance against foliar fungal diseases might reduce the reliance on chemical fungicides, thereby introducing an environment-friendly approach for plant protection.
