Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) play a crucial role in enhancing plant growth and nutrient acquisition. The impacts of pressures on crop yield have been made worse by climate change and agricultural practices such as overuse of pesticides and fertilizers, which have also damaged the environment. AMF are one environmentally friendly management strategy that is desperately needed to increase agricultural output. More importantly, it's widely acknowledged that the AMF inoculation confers resistance in host plants to a range of stressful environments, such as heat, salt, drought, metals, and abnormally high or low temperatures. This review paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the current understanding of AMF efficiency on various aspects of plant physiology, including nutrient uptake and overall plant development. The paper synthesizes information from recent studies to present a nuanced perspective on the multifaceted interactions between AMF and plants. Furthermore, challenges and future directions in AMF research are discussed, highlighting the need for a more integrated and holistic approach to harness the full potential of these fungi for enhancing plant productivity and nutrient acquisition.
