A study was conducted to access the diversity of AM Fungi and relationship of Calotropis gigantea in Indian Thar Desert. For this purpose, soil samples along with the plant root were collected from different areas of Indian Thar Desert. The survey of AM fungi associated with Calotropis gigantea in Indian Thar Desert revealed that eleven AM fungi commonly occur in the rhizosphere viz., Acaulospora laevis, Acaulospora morrawae, Gigaspora gigangea, Gigaspora margarita, Glomus aggregatum, Glomus constrictum, Glomus deserticola, Glomus fasciculatum, Glomus macrocarpum, Scutellospora calospora and Scutellospora nigra. It was found the 4 genera of AM Fungi are distributed in these soils. However, relative abundance and qualitative distribution of AM genera was found to vary from place to place.
