Acid sulfate soil (ASS) has an extremely low pH (3.0) and a high capacity to fix phosphate; symptoms of phosphate deficiency are commonly observed in many crop plants. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form mutualistic relationships with plant roots, and improve uptake of phosphate from soil. However, there is little information on the actual situation of AM fungi in ASS in Thailand. The purpose of the present study is to determine the indigenous AM fungal density and species in ASS in Thailand. AM fungal spores were retrieved and identified by molecular approaches from ASS field at the central plain of Thailand. This study showed that AM fungal spore density in ASS was 0.232 spores per g dry soil. Among the plant species growing in the natural ASS, there was no AM fungal colonization in the roots of four plant species, i.e. Digitaria sp., Fimbristylis sp., Mimosa pudica L., and Sesbania sp.; however, AM colonization was found in Wedelia roots. Using phylogenetic analysis, four operational taxonomic units (OTUs), i.e., one Glomus, one Entrophospora, one Paraglomus and one unknown species were identified from the AM fungal spores. Five OTUs, i.e., two Glomus, one Acaulospora, one Entrophospora and one unknown Glomeromycota were indentified from Wedelia roots. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the actual situation of AM fungi in ASS in Thailand determined by using molecular approaches.
