abstract = {Community structure of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in the roots of drought-resistant trees Moringa spp. were examined in semi-arid regions in Madagascar and Uganda. Root samples were collected from eight individuals of M. hildebrandtii and two individuals of M. drouhardii in Madagascar, and 21 individuals of M. oleifera in Uganda. Total DNA was extracted from the root samples, and partial nSSU rDNA of AM fungi were amplified using a universal eukaryotic primer NS31 and an AM fungal-specific primer AM1. The PCR products were cloned and divided by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis with HinfI and RsaI. Some representatives in each RFLP types were sequenced, and a neighbor-joining phylogenetic analysis was conducted for the obtained sequences with analogous sequences of AM fungi. The RFLP and phylogenetic analyses showed that the AM fungi closely related to Glomus intraradices or G. sinuosum were detected in many samples. The AM fungal groups frequently detected in the Moringa spp. might be widely distributed species in semi-arid environments.}
