Investigation shows nutrient composition affects Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in pteridophytes, implying ecological significance.
AbstractEffects of soil nutrient status on AM fungi associated with four common pteridophytes, Equisetum hyemale, Marsilea quadrifolia, Nephrolepis exaltata and Ophioglossum vulgatum were evaluated during present investigation. The specimens were collected from different localities in and around Dharashiv. District, Maharashtra, India. Physico-chemical parameters of rhizospheric soils, including pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon, primary nutrients (N, P, K), secondary nutrients (Ca, Mg, S), and micronutrients (Na, Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu, B, and Mo), were analysed. The results highlighted variability in soil nutrient composition among rhizospheres of pteridophytes,
