The occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi associated with different host plants grown in various type of saline and acidic soils is well documented (Gupta, Basak, and Das 2002; Alloush and Clark 2001). Tea is an important plantation crop of veryhigh economic and commercial value and is reported to have mycorrhizal association (Otieno 1995; Rajagopal and Ramarethianan 1997; Kumaran and Santhankrishanan 1995). The effect of mycorrhization on their vegetative growth and nutrient uptake has been reported (Zhi 1995; Liu and Lei 1995). However, studies on AM association with tea plants in acidic soils are scanty. Therefore, to collect some information on the distribution of AM fungi in low pH soils a preliminary survey was made of the rhizosphere ofdifferent tea clones grown in the Tarmakant tea plantations in Keonjhar.
