VESICULAR ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI DISPERSED BYWASPS
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Scientific Research - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Spores of vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi have been found in the digestive tracts of grasshoppers, crickets, millipedes, and in earthworm and ant (Hetrick, 1984). Some digging and burrowing animals do not themselves, injest fungi but bring soil to the surface, hence may influence the dispersal of VAM fungi by wind or the activity of insects and birds which use soil for building their nests or mounds (Mac Mahon, 1982). Wasp is one such insect which uses soil for building their nest and there by can play a role in the disperral of VAM fungal spores (Mcllveen and Cole, 1976).
