Identification and Diversity of Mycorrhizae in Several Rhizospheres of Plant Vegetation in Ultisol Land
Abstract
The poor fertility of ultisol soil hinders the cultivation of food, horticultural crops, and plantation crop nurseries, leading to the abandonment of many lands. Low fertility and productivity levels and high solubility of Al, Mn, and Fe characterize ultisol soil. One effective method to enhance soil properties is by utilizing arbuscular mycorrhiza. Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) play a crucial role in improving nutrient and water absorption, thereby enhancing the growth potential of AMF-infected roots and plants. This study aims to identify the types and diversity of mycorrhizae present in the rhizosphere of plants growing in Ultisol soil. The study employed an exploratory approach involving the collection of soil and plant samples, analysing soil, and identifying Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) in Ultisol vegetation. The results revealed the presence of AMF in the rhizospheres of various plant species, including Seduduk, Harendong, Kirinyuh, Alang-Alang, and Paku Resam. Three mycorrhizal genera were identified, namely Glomus, Acaulospora, and Gigaspora.
