Abstract

The majority of plants associate with mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi are ecologically important becausethey form relationships in and on the roots of a host plant in a symbiotic association. Mycorrhizal symbiosisbetween plants and AMF is life form that known mutuality symbiosis. The host plant provides the fungus solublecarbon sources and the fungus provides the host plant water and nutrients from the soil. Mycorrhizal fungi areclassified in to 4 major types: ectomycorrhizas, arbucular mycorrhizas, ericaceous mycorrhizas and orchidmycorrhizas. Arbuscular mycorrhizal associations are the most abundant of the several different types ofmycorrhizas. Plants benefit more from soil because of surface extent of root of plants enlarge by AMFextramatrical hyphes. These hyphes improve aggregate stability of soil. Soil resistance to erosion and plantresistance to drought – salinity – high metal stress are increased by AMF. Also plants are protected to root pathogens and growth hormones induced by AMF. There is positive effect of AMF on physiology andmorphology of range plants as well as on plant growth and soil quality. At the present day, thought of rangerehabilitation studies which continued with composite fertilizer dwindle in scientific area. The importancereasons of this emanate from thought that composite fertilizer damage to ecosystem. Range rehabilitation studieswith AMF inoculation is topical subject in Turkey as is the case in the entire world. So, it should be done map ofAMF in Turkey for isolating and production of AMF. This AMF are applied for range rehabilitation especiallythe field that marginal soil condition.
