Occurrence of mycorrhizal spores and phosphate solubilizing potential of rhizosphere mycoflora of seagrass Thalassia hemprechii (Ehrenb.) Asch.
Phosphorus is one among the chief macronutrients that take part in the various biological processes of plants, and it cannot be replaced by other elements. We examined the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization and phosphate solubilizing potential of fungi from seagrass T. hemprichii (Ehrenb.) Asch., which belongs to the family Hydrocharitaceae collected from the Gulf of Mannar, India. For the first time, we reported the occurrence of AMF spores and phosphate-solubilizing potential of fungal species from t …
