Family Cyperaceae, members are commonly known as sedges. This family has ambiguity about mycorrhizal or non-mycorrhizal nature. So far, many sedges have been investigated globally for mycorrhizal occurrence interest. However, a sedge genus, Eleocharis has been not paid more attention for mycorrhizal investigations. Present work is the first attempt to evaluate mycorrhizal status in a recently discovered endemic sedge species: Eleocharis konkanensis Chandore, Borude, Kambale & . Yadav which grows in a Lateritic rocky plateaus habitat. This study makes a new report on mycorrhization in an endemic sedge: E. konkanensis. | A new record Incidence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi AMF in eleocharis konkanensis an endemic sedge of maharashtra India
