Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF) are one of the crucial microbial communities in the soil ecosystem. Researches on AMF reproductive techniques and their applications in practice have profound significance for elevating agricultural production efficiency and sustainability. This paper reviewed the latest research advancements in the symbiotic mechanism of AMF and its application in propagation systems and microbial inoculants. It explored the molecular mechanism through which AMF establish symbiotic relationships with plant roots; analyzed the optimization strategies for AMF propagation systems, encompassing key factors such as aseptic culture techniques, substrate selection, and environmental control; discussed the application potential of AMF inoculants in actual production, including enhancing crop yields, strengthening plant stress resistance, and improving soil structure. It highlighted the practical issues existing in the current application domains of AMF and the future research directions. The purpose was to offer a reference for further comprehension of the significance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and lay the foundation for the development of novel microbial inoculants and their application in agricultural ecosystems in the future.
