“…This result confirms the findings of Tahat et al (2012), who also observed maximum spore number and colonized roots with Maize compared to Sorghum, Barley and Lentil. However, the results of this research are in contradiction with the findings of some other researchers including Al-Raddad (1995), Selvakumar et al (2016), who reported the inability of Maize plant for AMF multiplication. Meanwhile, Lemon grass also showed tremendous increase in mycorrhizal inoculum after Maize which supports the results of Kaushish et al (2011).…”

Article InfoThis experiment was carried out to assess the effect of soil amendment with different concentrations of municipal sewage sludge (SS) as a substrate on inoculum production of two selected arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) i.e., Glomus mosseae and Acaulospora laevis. The experiment was a 4 × 5 factorial design with four hosts including, maize (Zea mays L.), lemon grass (Cymbopogon nardus (L.) Rendle), palmarosa (Cymbopogon martini (Roxb.) Wats.) and Sesbania (Sesbania aculeata Poir.) and the following five SS concentrations 1) no substrate, 2) 25 g, 3) 50 g, 4) 75 g and 5) 200 g pot -1 ) with five replications. After 90 days, the host roots and its rhizosphere soil were examined for fungal mycorrhization in terms of percent of root colonization and AMF spore quantification. Furthermore, we calculated the response of each host in terms of increase in plant height (cm), root length (cm), root, fresh shoots, and dry weight (g). Mycorrhization pattern showed moderate to abundant intraradical mycelium, extraradical mycelium, vesicles, and arbuscules in all the host plants. This pattern varied with a change in the input level of SS. The 75 g treatment obtained the maximum mycorrhization of both the AMF, while the highest input level was detrimental to AMF and host plants' survival. Among the tested hosts, lemon grass and maize had a tremendous increment in G. mosseae and A. laevis inoculum respectively. Consequently, 75 g SS with lemon grass is the most compatible hostsubstrate combination capable of maximum G. mosseae and A. laevis spore production and root colonization and so far, highlights the significance of an alternative, cost-effective and affordable carrier medium that can be adopted by farmers as sustainable cultural practices for on farm AMF inoculum production.

“…The research of Selvakumar et al (2016) also showed the same results. Mycorrhizal inoculation by trap culture in maize resulted in longer shoots and roots than sudangrass plants and after the second plant cycle, maize plants had a higher percentage of mycorrhizal response in terms of colonization and arbuscules than sudangrass (Selvakumar et al, 2016). Therefore, the maize plant was selected as the best host plant for propagating AMF spore collected from the coffee rhizosphere.…”

“…When using Mimosa invisa, Sorghum bicolor and Zea mays on AMF propagation, resulted from spore population and root colonization were recorded at the highest rate on Z. mays (3690 spores/100 cm 3 and 65% root length colonized) (Chaiyasen, Leardwiriyakool, David, & Saisamorn, 2016). The research of Selvakumar et al (2016) also showed the same results.

Coffee (Coffea spp.) is one of important industrial crops. Additionally, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) provide many benefits for plants such as increasing nutrient uptake, enhancing tolerance in drought and stress condition, etc. Therefore, preservation and propagation of AMF spores collected from coffee’s rhizosphere are necessary for coffee cultivation. The AMF preservation on coffee plant is not feasible because coffee is a long-term plants, which led to study on symbiotic ability of AMF on several short-term host plants (maize (Zea mays), plantain (Plantago spp.), rice (Oryza sativa), beggarticks (Bidens pilosa), and bahia grass (Pensacola bahia)) to maintain AM association. Investigation of symbiosis ability with four types of AMF spores showed that maize had the highest rate of fungal infection. The total number of AMF spore per 50g soil after 3 months of inoculation on maize reached 352 spores, which was 4.1 times higher than that of the origin while the lowest figure recorded in bahia grass is with only 2.3 times.

“…Afterward, maize seedlings were inoculated with a suspension of sterilized mycorrhizal spore mixture obtained from the three month trap culture. Next, roots colonized with the mycorrhizal fungal complex were accurately rinsed three times with distilled water before being cut into 1 cm fragments and used as fresh mycorrhizal inoculum [28,29]. The obtained inoculants were given numbers such as complexes A9 and A10 (Table 1).…”

The date, the palm tree (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is an important component of arid and semi-arid Mediterranean ecosystems, particularly in Morocco where it plays a considerable socio-economic and ecological role. This species is largely affected by desertification, global warming, and anthropic pressure. Salinity is a very worrying problem that negatively affects the growth and the physiological and biochemical activities of the date palm. In these arid zones, the main challenge is to develop new environmentally friendly technologies that improve crop tolerance to abiotic restraints including salinity. In this sense, Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have received much attention due to their capability in promoting plant growth and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses. It is thus fitting that the current research work was undertaken to evaluate and compare the effects of native AMF on the development of the growth and tolerance of date palm to salt stress along with testing their role as biofertilizers. To achieve this goal, two complexes and two monospecific isolates of native and non-native AMF were used to inoculate date palm seedlings under saline stress (0 g·L−1 Na Cl, 10 g·L−1, and 20 g·L−1 Na Cl). The obtained results showed that salinity drastically affected the physiological parameters and growth of date palm seedlings, whilst the application of selected AMF significantly improved growth parameters and promoted the activities of antioxidant enzymes as a protective strategy. Inoculation with non-native AMF complex and monospecific isolates showed higher responses for all analyzed parameters when compared with the native complex and isolate. It therefore becomes necessary to glamorize the fungal communities associated with date palm for their use in the inoculation of Phoenix dactylifera L. seedlings.
