Four bacterial species &lt;em&gt;Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;aerophilus,&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt; Microbacterium laevaniformans&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus xylosus&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;were isolated from strains M1, RT, D5 and D7 respectively. Also, the distribution of AM fungi population was studied from rhizosphere soils of these legumes. Among the AM fungi, &lt;em&gt;Glomus &lt;/em&gt;species was dominant and bacterial genus &lt;em&gt;Bacillus&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;was found to be dominant. Maximum number of VAM infection was found in the rhizosphere soil of &lt;em&gt;Mimosa pudica &lt;/em&gt;of Srikona.</p></abstract><kwd-group><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi</kwd><kwd> Glomus</kwd><kwd> Spore Population</kwd><kwd> Diversity</kwd></kwd-group><counts><ref-count count='' /><page-count count='' /></counts></article-meta></front></article>
