Journal of Tropical Mycorrhiza is an international journal devoted to research into mycorrhizas - the widest symbioses in nature, involving plants and a range of soil fungi world-wide. The journal covers research into mycorrhizas, including molecular biology of the plants and fungi, fungal systematics, development and structure of mycorrhizas, and effects on plant physiology, productivity, reproduction and disease resistance. Coverage extends to interactions between mycorrhizal fungi and other soil organisms, and effects of mycorrhizas on plant biodiversity, ecosystem structure, reclamation and restoration of degraded land. Journal of Tropical Mycorrhiza presents original papers, short notes and review articles, along with commentaries and news items. It offers a platform for new concepts and discussions, and serves as the basis for a forum of mycorrhizologists from around the world.

Abstract

Andisols have very high P retention so that soil needs to be improved through the application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) biofertilizers. The aim of the experiment was to determine the effect of AMF and rate of NPK on the root colonization, phosphate uptake, fresh weight of shoot and root of kangkong (Ipomea reptans Poir) on Andisols, it was also aimed to reduce the use of NPK fertilizers. The experiment was conducted in screen house Lembang, West Java. The experiment was arranged with Split Plot Design with AMF as the main plot (with and without AMF) and rate of NPK as subplots (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% recommended dose). Results showed that there was an effect between AMF and NPK on root colonization, P uptake, fresh weight of shoot and root of kangkong. In general, AMF treatment had a significant effect in increasing root colonization, phosphate uptake, fresh weight of shoot and root of kangkong compared to the treatment without AMF. AMF and 50% NPK treatment showed the best effect on yield of kangkong, hence application of AMF has potential to reduce the use of NPK fertilizer by 50% and increase the productivity of kangkong in Andisols.

Abstract

Productivity of crops such as maize and sorghum is often constrained by low soil fertility, especially in terms of nutrient availability. Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi (FMA) can improve nutrient absorption and support plant growth through a symbiotic relationship with plant roots. However, the success of FMA colonisation is strongly influenced by the quality of the growing medium, which is often contaminated with competing microorganisms that inhibit its effectiveness. To address this issue, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of sterilisation methods on the colonisation of FMA in maize and sorghum plants. The sterilisation methods tested were autoclaving and gamma radiation. This study used a completely randomised design with 8 treatment combinations and 5 replications. Zeolite media was sterilised using autoclaving and gamma radiation at a dose of 50 kGy. Results showed that sterilisation with gamma radiation produced a higher number of mycorrhiza spores and increased root colonisation in maize and sorghum compared to autoclaving. Gamma radiation applied to one sorghum seedling resulted in the highest spore count, while two seedlings in one pot reduced colonisation efficiency due to competition for nutrients. Gamma radiation was more effective in improving the quality of growing media and supporting mycorrhiza colonisation, ultimately enhancing overall plant growth and nutrient absorption.

Abstract

High concentration of salt in saline soil inhibits plants to grow normally. Good management of this soil may improve this land to be more productive. Utilization of indigenous beneficial soil microorganisms such_ as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) isolated from saline soil has been known to be able to increase plant growth and mycorrhizal sporulation. This study aimed to explore indigenous AMF species in saline soil, in West_ Java. This research was conducted in salt impacted areas in the northern coastal area of West Java i.e. Karawang, Subang, Indramayu, and Cirebon. The method used for soil sampling is by transect with the length of ordinate point in every 500 m of the coastline. The number of AMF spores, mycorrhizal colonization, and mycorrhizal species identification were analyzed. The result showed that the number of indigenous AMF spores per 25 g soil were 109 in Karawang, 50 in Indramayu, 170 in Subang, and 100 in Cirebon. The average mycorrhizal colonization was 90 %. Glomus sp. and Gigaspora sp. were found to be dominant in those soils. This result implies that some mycorrhizal fungi can live and maybe had good adaptation in saline soil and from symbiosis activity with the plant. Therefore they are the potential to evaluated and used to improve saline land productivity in the future.

Abstract

The composition of host plant species and nutrient sources affects the success of mycorrhizal (Glomus sp) propagation in post-coal mining land. Plants that can be used as alternative hosts are cereals such as corn, millet, and sorghum. Vermicompost is an alternative source of nutrients to supply the nutrient needs of post-coal mining soil media. This study aimed to analyze the addition of vermicompost, the effect of different host plants, and the combination of both in the propagation of Glomus sp. The study was conducted in a greenhouse using a factorial completely randomized design with the first factor being the host plant and the second factor being the dose of vermicompost. The results showed that the addition of vermicompost increased the number of spores and the percentage of mycorrhizae colonization on the roots of each host plant with optimum yield. The combination dose of vermicompost (2 g pot-1) and millet as a host plant produced the highest number of spores of 4,880 spores pot-1 with root colonization reaching to 63.3%

Abstract

Mycorrhiza is a fungus that is symbiotic with plant roots, has great potential in biological control of plant diseases. The purpose of this literature review study is to examine in depth the role of mycorrhiza in plant disease control based on scientific articles indexed on Google Scholar. This study used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to collect data from 100 relevant scientific articles, indexed on Google Scholar, with a range of years 2010-2024. The data was analyzed using VOSviewer software to map the relationship between keywords. The results of network, overlay and density visualization using VOSviewer showed that mycorrhiza, particularly arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), have a central role in plant disease control through symbiotic interactions with roots and soil microorganisms. The network visualization highlights the close relationship between keywords such as "plant," "fungi," and "soil microorganism," while the overlay visualization reveals recent research trends focusing on plant growth and protection against pathogens. The density map visualization emphasized that topics such as root health, symbiosis, and soil microorganism management were the main focus. Overall, this study confirms the importance of mycorrhizae in supporting sustainable agriculture, with great potential to increase crop productivity and reduce reliance on chemical pesticides.
