Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi — Identification, Taxonomic Criteria, Classification, Controversies and TerminologyTaxonomy of any group of plants is an important aspect for a botanist. During the last two decades systematics of VAM/AM fungi has gained significance because of their role in soil fertility,...
1995). The taxonomy of AM fungi is based upon the morphology of large (10–600 μm diameter) asexual spores produced in the soil or within roots. View chapterExplore book The symbionts forming arbuscular mycorrhizas Sally E. Smith FAA, David Read FRS, in Mycorrhizal Symbiosis (Third Edition...
The significance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in the process of plant invasion is still poorly understood. We hypothesize that invasive plants would change local AMF community structure in a way that would benefit themselves but confer less advantages to native plants, thus influencing the ...
In this review with an introductory character the major ecological roles of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are described. It is supplemented with updated information about the classification and taxonomy of the Glomeromycota, the fungi that form arbuscular mycorrhiza. In addition an overview is given abou...

Nutrient exchange, evolution, taxonomy, phenology, below-ground microbial interaction, propagule dissemination, invasive plants interactions, the potential role in phytoremediation and some of the factors affecting AM fungal biology are discussed. We conclude that it is essential to include AM association...
In this paper, the current approach to study the ecology and taxonomy of AM fungi is presented, which also provides some insights into the study of other plant root endophytes. In addition, a widely used system for classifying AM fungi with so-called virtual taxa (VT)...
Taxonomy AMF are formed between roots and a particular group of fungi, which are taxonomically separated from all other true fungi in the phylum Glomeromycota (Schüssler et al., 2001). Fossil and molecular phylogenetic data indicate that the first land plants already harboured AMF and would pr...
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi associate with most land plants and deliver phosphorus to the host. Identification of biotic/abiotic factors that determine crop responses to AM fungal inoculation is an essential step for successful application of the f
