Efficiency in the Sporulation and Colonization of the Mycorrrrace-Forming Fungus Morphospecies Glomus claroides IN Bothriochloa pertusa (L) A. Camus

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the sporulation and colonization capacity of Glomus claroides in situ on Bothriochloa pertusa. The results of the in situ trial show that the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal morphospecies (AMF) G. claroides isolated from different localities (Tolú and Corozal) have different sporulation and colonization patterns, but in both treatments it was found that the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal morphospecies has the ability to speculate and colonize roots of B. pertusa grass. G. claroides is a predominant AMF morphospecies in both livestock farms in the municipality of Tolú and Corozal and can simultaneously use B. pertusa as a host plant for the production of inoculums for use as biofertilizers.
