The phylogenetic relationship of the asexual mycorrhizal fungus Cenococcum geophilam Fr. among sexual ascomycetes was examined by phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequence data from the nuclear small subunit (18S) ribosomal RNA genie region. A specific focus of this study was to test the hypothes

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form a widespread and ecologically important symbiosis with plants in the land ecosystem. The phylogeny of the largest presently accepted genus, Glomus, of the monogeneric family Glomaceae (Glomales; AM fungi) was analyzed. Phylogenetic trees were computed from near

## Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi may have some potential use in the restoration of degraded grassland through beneficial effects on plant growth and soil quality. A field investigation was conducted in three grassland sites of typical steppe in Inner Mongolia. The three plant communiti

Five different species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), three of which were isolated from hydrocarbon polluted soils (Glomus deserticola, G. geosporum and G. intraradices) and two laboratory strains (G. fasciculatum and G. mosseae), were screened for symbiotic response with Medicago sativa L.
