Abstract
Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) is a normal component in the rhizosphere soil of many plants and plays a crucial role to improve the ecosystem by many ways. It enhances the growth of host plants through the process of absorption of nutrients from rhizosphere soil. It increases the feeder root system and produce glomalin protein components in soil. It helps plants to remain steady in different stress prone conditions like heavy metals, salt stress, water stress even resist host plants against the attack of several pathogens like nematodes and fungi. As they produce a connection between rhizosphere soil particle and feeder root cortical cells of the host plants, several types of AM fungal structures produced within the living host root cells and outside the roots i.e. within the rhizosphere soil. During monsoon, gregarious vegetative growth of the wild host plants takes place naturally. Fine feeder root system is also highly observed and similarly internal colonization % is highly noticed in this case. This paper reflects only AM colonization % on some wild weed plants in monsoon. Result revealed that highest AM colonization% (99) was found in Scoparia and Jatropha but lowest (17%) in Sida during monsoon.
