FUNGUS FORMING ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAS AND USE THEREOF TO STIMULATE PLANT GROWTH

摘要

The present invention relates to the field involved in the recovery of degraded areas, revegetation, production of mycorrhizal inoculants and biofertilisers, ecological agriculture and nursery production. More specifically, the invention relates to a new arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) which establishes mycorrhizal symbiosis with the majority of plants of economic and ecological interest (fruit and vegetables, ornamental plants, those used for revegetation, etc.), increasing the survival, vitality and production thereof, particularly in conditions of high concentrations of heavy metals and other xenobiotics, and reducing the need for the application of chemical fertilisers, pesticides and phytosanitary products.
