Phosphate-Solubilizing Fungi: Current Perspective and Future Need for Agricultural Sustainability

  • Chapter

Recent Trends in Mycological Research

Part of the book series: Fungal Biology ((FUNGBIO))

Abstract

Phosphorus (P) is the second utmost significant element required by the plants only after nitrogen. It is necessary for plants to carry out major metabolic process, signal transduction, respiration, macromolecular biosynthesis, and energy transfer. Phosphorous is present in ample amount in the soil in both organic and inorganic forms; however, its bioavailability for the plants is very limited. Further, phosphatic fertilizers applied in the fields quickly transformed into insoluble forms. Therefore, again very little percentage of the applied phosphorus is available to plants, making continuous application of fertilizers necessary. Thus, the extensive use of chemical phosphatic fertilizers causes soil fertility reduction and environmental pollution. In this perspective, phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) provide an eco-friendly alternative for the farmers. Bacteria, cyanobacteria, and fungi are the major candidates of PSM. Although PSMs are commonly found in soil, their population may not be high enough to compete with other bacterial community and establish in the rhizosphere. Therefore, inoculation with higher concentration of PSM strains would be more beneficial for phosphate-solubilizing activity in the root environment. Penicillium, Aspergillus, Rhizopus, Fusarium, and Sclerotium are the most studied genera among phosphate-solubilizing fungus (PSF).
