Rhizospheric soil and root samples were collected from eight species of Lamiaceae plants for AMF analysis. The results indicate that root colonization was not directly related to the number of AMF spores in the rhizosphere. However, a significant correlation was found between the percentage of root colonization and the number of AMF species present in the individual plants. The highest percentage of colonization (86.67\u2009\u00b1\u20091.92%) and the greatest number of AMF species were observed in <jats:italic>Micromeria fructicosa<\/jats:italic>, while the lowest colonization (27.67\u2009\u00b1\u20096.22%) was recorded in <jats:italic>Mentha arvensis<\/jats:italic>. The highest spore count was recorded in <jats:italic>Thymus vulgaris<\/jats:italic> (120\u2009\u00b1\u200927.01), whereas the lowest was found in <jats:italic>Melissa officinalis<\/jats:italic> (84\u2009\u00b1\u200917.20). Among the identified AMF species, <jats:italic>Glomus<\/jats:italic> was the most dominant, representing 35.7% of all AMF species across the eight medicinal plants. The maximum AMF spore density was observed in <jats:italic>M. fructicosa<\/jats:italic> and lowest in <jats:italic>M. arvensis<\/jats:italic>. The study suggests that AMF can significantly enhance medicinal plant growth by ensuring a consistent supply of nutrients and water, thereby supporting the sustainable cultivation of medicinal plants to meet the growing demand.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jobm.202400379","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,21]],"date-time":"2024-10-21T06:05:31Z","timestamp":1729490731000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Exploring the Diversity, Root Colonization, and Morphology of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Lamiaceae"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"Kalpana","family":"Sharma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Botany, Akal College of Basic Sciences Eternal University Baru Sahib India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meenakshi","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Environmental Studies, Faculty of Science Panjab University Chandigarh India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Devendra Kumar","family":"Srivastava","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Botany, Akal College of Basic Sciences Eternal University Baru Sahib India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5257-4204","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pradeep Kumar","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Botany, Akal College of Basic Sciences Eternal University Baru Sahib India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1469-8137.2008.02378.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","volume-title":"Mycorrhizal Symbiosis","author":"Smith S.
