الملخصRecently more attention has been observed toward the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in plant growth. Qatar belongs to the Arabian Gulf region with hot and dry climatic conditions. The study aims to investigate the species composition and abundance of AMF in Qatar, rhizosphere soil samples, and roots of plants from 12 families and 8 different locations. The AMF were identified based on the sequencing of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product of the amplified conserved ITS region. The reported AMF infection rate was found to vary with location and plant species. Tamarix aphylla recorded the highest AMF infection rate (100%), followed by Blepharis ciliaris (98%) and Sporobolus ioclados (92%). AMF spore counts ranged from 29.3 spores in Blepharis ciliaris to 643 spores/100 g soil in Fagonia indica. No correlation was detected between colonization rate and spore counts. While all AMF identified at species levels were reported in other regions, new species are still expected since some were identified only at higher taxonomic levels. Claroideoglomus drummondii and Rhizophagus irregularis were the most widespread while Claroideoglomus claroideum and Diversispora aurantia were the least present. Our results fill the gap of knowledge of AMF in the region and opens new research toward its future applications for sustainable agriculture.
راعي المشروعWe would like to thank Mrs. Muneera Al Mesaifri (Herbarium supervisor at Qatar University) for her help in taxonomy of plants. We acknowledged the help of Mrs. Abeer Al-Mohanadi and Mrs. Zeitona Abu Hamam for her technical assistance and support. Our great appreciation to SYMPLANTA laboratory in Germany particularly Dr. Arthur Schüßler for his communications and support in the DNA analysis part.
