Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are one of the important components of biodiversity in ecosystems. They are rich in species diversity, genetic diversity, and function diversity. Their taxonomy position moved forward to phylum, and there are 214 species belonging to 19 genera, 13 families, 4 orders, and 1 class reported in the world. AM fungi play a vital role in keeping ecological balance and enhancing ecosystem sustainable productivity. This paper reviewed the research advances in the species diversity of AM fungi distributed globally, the key factors affecting this species diversity in various ecosystems, and related regulation pathways. It was considered that molecular biological techniques would be the main approaches in the future study of AM fungal species diversity.
丛枝菌根（AM）真菌是生态系统生物多样性的重要组成部分之一。它们具有丰富的物种多样性、遗传多样性和功能多样性。其分类地位已提升至门，全世界报道有属于19属、13科、4目、1纲的214个物种。AM真菌在维持生态平衡和提高生态系统可持续生产力方面发挥着至关重要的作用。本文综述了全球分布的AM真菌物种多样性、影响各生态系统中该物种多样性的关键因素以及相关调控途径的研究进展。认为分子生物学技术将是未来AM真菌物种多样性研究的主要方法。
