Three host plants viz. Antigonon leptopus Hook. & Arn., Cocoloba uvifera L., and Polygonum glabrum (Wild.) belonging to the family Polygonaceae were screened for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal association in their rhizosphere soils. All plants which were either medicinal or ornamental were found to harbour arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. All three host plants surveyed form new host records for Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi reported in this paper.
Mycorrhizae, Rhizosphere soil, Glomus.
