Table 3 Effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on plants under stress conditions

Vitis vinifera

Glomus mosseae

Enhance plant growth and concentration of phosphorus and potassium in the leaf under drought stress condition

(Kamayestani et al. 2019)

Poncirus trifoliata

Funneliformis mosseae, Paraglomus occultum

Enhance plant growth under drought stress conditions by increasing photosynthesis and nutritional status of the plant

(Zhang et al. 2019)

Solanum lycopersium

Rhizophagus intraradices and Claroidoglomus etunicatum

Increase fruit yield and concentration of potassium and calcium in the plant under drought stress condition

(Khosravifar et al. 2020)

Zea mays

Rhizophagus intraradices

Increase plant biomass and rate of photosynthesis through tolerance to high temperature

(Mathur et al. 2018)

Triticum durum

Rhizophagus intraradices, Funneliformis mosseae

Increase plant grain yield and content of nutrient in the grain through tolerance to drought

(Bernardo et al. 2019; Goicoechea et al. 2016)

Olea europaea

Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi

Increase in uptake of mineral and reduces drought stress

(Imane et al. 2019)

Triticum aestivum

Glomus mosseae,

Funneliformis mosseae

Increase potassium and phosphorus uptake weight and chlorophyll content

(Rani 2016; Tarnabi et al. 2020)

Matthiola incana

Rhizophagus intaradices

Improved flower yield, shoot, root length and macronutrient content under salt stress condition

(Akať, 2020)

Pistachia vera

Glomus mosseae

Increase potassium, phosphorus, and zinc concentration in the leaf

(Rohani et al. 2019)

Solanum lycopersicum

Rhizophagus intaradices

Reduce the effect of Cd on the crop yield and development

(Kumar et al. 2015; Vilela and Barbosa 2019)

Pelargonium graveolens

Rhizophagus intaradices

Funneliformis mosseae

Increase plant weight and potassium, calcium and phosphorus uptake under drought stress condition

(Amiri et al. 2015; Rydlová and Püschel 2020)

Prunus spp. Rootstock

Rhizophagus intaradices

Increase plant growth by increasing the concentration of phosphorus and potassium in the leaf

(Feldmane et al. 2020)
