Abstract: Drought is a major restriction to plant growth. AMF (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) can increase the absorption of nutrition , facilitate the growth of plant and improve drought resistance of many plants. The experiment compared the effects of two AMF species on wheat at 10 % water level . The wheat inoculated with 90089 and 90036 decreased stomatal resistance , increased net photosynthetic rate , stomatal conduction , tran2 spiration rate and WUE compared with the control .
