The majority of plants associate with mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi are ecologically important because they form relationships in and on the roots of a host plant in a symbiotic association. Mycorrhizal symbiosis between plants and AMF is life form that known mutuality symbiosis. The host plant provides the fungus soluble carbon sources and the fungus provides the host plant water and nutrients from the soil. Mycorrhizal fungi are classified in to 4 major types: ectomycorrhizas, arbucular mycorrhizas, ericaceous mycorrhizas and orchid mycorrhizas. Arbuscular mycorrhizal associations are the most abundant of the several different types of mycorrhizas. Plants benefit more from soil because of surface extent of root of plants enlarge by AMF extramatrical hyphes. These hyphes improve aggregate stability of soil. Soil resistance to erosion and plant resistance to drought – salinity – high metal stress are increased by AMF. Also plants are protected to root pathogens and growth hormones induced by AMF. There is positive effect of AMF on physiology and morphology of range plants as well as on plant growth and soil quality. At the present day, thought of range rehabilitation studies which continued with composite fertilizer dwindle in scientific area. The importance reasons of this emanate from thought that composite fertilizer damage to ecosystem. Range rehabilitation studies with AMF inoculation is topical subject in Turkey as is the case in the entire world. So, it should be done map of AMF in Turkey for isolating and production of AMF. This AMF are applied for range rehabilitation especially the field that marginal soil condition.
