Spanish; Castilian. A survey was carried out to establish the effects of Land Use Types (LUTs) on Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi (AMF). AMF spore abundance and colonization were evaluated. The percentage root colonization was assessed in trap plants only. AMF were identified and enumerated from spores extracted directly from field soils. Soils were sampled from 60 points occurring in central Kenya. A total of 17 AMF species were isolated and 14 identified to species level. The spore community was dominated by Acaulosporaceae, and Glomaceae. Land use type had no significant (p

The percentage root colonization was assessed in trap plants only. AMF were identified and enumerated from spores extracted directly from field soils. Soils were sampled from 60 points occurring in three windows in central Kenya. A total of 16 AMF species were isolated and 15 distinguished to species status. The spore community was dominated by Acaulosporaceae, and Glomaceae. Land use type had no significant (p
