Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Diversity In Medicinal Plants Of Sirumalai Hills, Eastern Ghats And Their Role In Melia Dubia Cav

The microbial World is the largest unexplored reservoir of biodiversity on earth. Interest in the exploration of microbial diversity has been promoted by the fact that a microbe performs  numerous functions essential for the biosphere that include nutrient cycle and environmental detoxification. Notably, under natural circumstances, plants frequently interact with microbes,which directly arbitrate plant responses to environmental adversities. Some microbe-plant interactions lead to a mitigation of stress-related damages and improvement of plant tolerance to stressful conditions. As a crucial element of soils, microbes are an integral part of the agricultural ecosystem.
