Influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on plant growth and nutrition of sorghum
The growing use of chemical fertilizers has been witnessing the grave consequence of global economic imbalance as well as environmental pollution. In this context of increased awareness of the benefits of biofertilizers, the potential of Arbuscular Mycorrhizae(AM) as a biofertilizer can play a significant role in the future agroeconomic scenario as a partial substitute to chemical fertilizers.The attractions of mycorrhizae are being naturally symbiotic, they act as biofertilizers and they are non-polluting to the environment. The most important factor stimulating interest in mycorrhizae was the overwhelming published evidence indicating the growth promoting aspects of mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi with their extramatrical hyphae increased the absorption of relatively immobile elements in soil especially phosphorus by substantially extending the area of absorption beyond the root hairs.
