Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Interactions in the Rhizosphere

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Rhizosphere Biology: Interactions Between Microbes and Plants

Part of the book series: Rhizosphere Biology ((RHBIO))

Abstract

Biological interactions are considered as a core topic in ecology field and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), one of the crucial soil microfloras, play a vital role in nutrition cycling, stress resistance, and ecological functions. This review summarized the processes, mechanisms, and advanced techniques of AM fungi interactions with host plant, AM fungi and bacteria in the rhizosphere and hyphosphere. These research progresses provide a new insight into AM fungi and other organisms’ interactions, which is useful for understanding the ecological functions of AM fungi in the crucial zone for plant–microbe interactions with enhanced activities.
