Abstract
Mycorrhizas are the symbiotic associations between plant and fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi always associate with the roots of higher plants, indeed over 90% of plant species, including forest trees, wild grasses and many crops. This study aims to determine the type of spores associated with Gmelina arborea stands. This research consisted of collecting root samples, identifying fungal spores in root samples and observing arbuscular mychorriza fungal infections. The results showed that the types of spores observed in root samples were Glomus, Gigaspora, and Scutellospora. The percentage of colonization on both sites is medium.
