Abstract

Forming Fungi inoculation of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza (HFMA) in horticultural,
streamlines the development and growth of plants, but have not yet been evaluated
sufficiently in some crops. Reason for which evaluated the efficiency of a consortium made
up of four morphospecies HFMA, isolated and propagated from five sites of saline soils of San
Luis Postosi state and then propagated and inoculated in lettuce plants, identifying the
species Glomus mosseae, 1,2,3,4,5 sites, and species Glomus aff. etunicatum, was
identified in the sites 1,3 and 4, while the species Glomus intraradices and Paraglomus sp., at
site 5. It demonstrates that the consortium of HFMA, retained their infectivity, as mycorrhizal
colonization was greater than 80%, but no effect was observed for morphological variables
assessed (root volume, leaf area and dry weight of foliage).
