Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal association in relation to edaphic and climatic factors was assessed in eight plant species viz., Chromolaena odoratum, Emilia sonchifolia, Mimosa pudica, Ludwigia parviflora, Ischaemum semisagittatum, Acacia auriculiformis, Acacia mangium, and Trema orientalis for one year from Codli iron ore mine reject dump in Goa. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization levels and spore numbers varied significantly between the plant species in the different seasons. The calculated correlation coefficient showed that soil moisture was negatively correlated to EC, N, P, K, calcium, organic carbon, and organic matter. Soil moisture had a positive influence on AM fungal colonization and a negative influence on spore density in all the plant species. Spore number was maximum in pre-monsoon and least in monsoon, while AM colonization was maximum in monsoon and least in pre-monsoon. A total of 40 AM fungal species belonging to 13 genera were reported during the study. Among the genera, the genus Glomus was dominant in the pre-monsoon, Acaulospora was dominant in the monsoon, and Gigaspora was dominant in the post-monsoon season.
