dc.description.abstract	Coastlands are ecologically sensitive habitats undergoing continuous transformation. They connect the terrestrial and marine ecosystems and impart several ecological services. However, they are susceptible to natural and anthropogenic disturbances that affect the structural stability and vegetation of the dunes. Hence, there is an urgent need to conserve and restore these habitats. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are essential to soil microorganisms involved in plant community establishment. In coastal dunes, they play a vital role in nutrient cycling and aggregation of sand particles. Therefore, a survey of AM fungal diversity from coastal dunes is necessary to stabilize and conserve dune systems.	en_US
