Abstract

CHIMAL-SANCHEZ, Eduardo et al. New records of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2016, vol.87, n.1, pp.242-247. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2016.01.024.

The arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal species Diversispora trimurales, Gigaspora candida and Glomus corymbiforme are reported for the first time in Mexico. These taxa were collected from the rhizosphere of Mimosa lacerata, M. luisana, M. polyantha, and M. purpusii (Leguminosae-Mimosoideae), endemic species to Mexico, 2 of which are distributed only in the Valley of Tehuacán-Cuicatlán, Puebla and Oaxaca. The revised specimens are described in detail and compared with the most similar species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Keywords : Arid ecosystems; Glomeromycota; Mimosa; Tehuacán-Cuicatlán.
