Sebacina vermifera, an arbuscular mycorrhiza like fungi with axenically cultivable characteristics, has opened a new vista in the field of symbiotic interaction with wide host spectrum of plants. Exploration of its multifaceted potentials for improved plant growth and performance is an area of interest for scientists across the globe. Present book includes experimental methodologies and technical details regarding a pilot study on effect of S. vermifera as model fungi on selected plants. Parameters to be studies in similar experimental studies are also included in lucid and explanatory manner for easy understanding of budding scientists. This work may also open an avenue to screen new and novel biofertilizer agents of fungal origin and exploit symbiotic interactions of arbuscular mycorrhiza like fungi, S. vermifera, for improved performance, enhanced productivity and yield of economically important plants. The outcomes will also provide a new and novel alternative approach for enhancement of crop productivity.
