dc.description.abstract	The present study was carried out to explore arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal diversity on stabilized iron ore mine dumps in Goa. A total of 84 plant species belonging to 36 families were examined for the occurrence of AM fungal diversity in two study sites of which 21 plants were common to both sites. All the plants undertaken for study were found to be mycorrhizal. In our study 19 AM fungal species belonging to eight genera, viz. Acaulospora, Funneliformis, Gigaspora, Glomus, Racocetra, Rhizophagus, Sclerocystis and Scutellospora were recovered. Acaulospora was dominant genus at both the sites. Based on Relative abundance (RA) and Isolation frequency (IF), Gigaspora albida was found to be dominant at site 1, while Scutellospora heterogama was dominant at site 2.	en_US
