The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the impact of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) Glomus mosseae on plant growth, including root proliferation as well as chlorophyll and carotenoid contents of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek]. We investigated the role of AMF in the field condition during Rabi season in Ambikapur Chhattisgarh, India and data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. Plant height (50.33±4.72 cm, 46.33±5.50 cm), root growth (22.83±2.75 cm, 19.66±4.72 cm), plant fresh biomass (17.54±1.08 g, 12.55±8.24 g), chlorophyll (11.93±0.83 mg g^-1 FW, 9.58±3.69 mg g^-1 FW) and carotenoid contents (0.67±0.10 mg g^-1 FW, 0.5±0.14 mg g^-1 FW) of mungbean plants were higher in the mycorrhiza inoculated as compared to the non-inoculated plants. The study revealed symbiotic association of G. mosseaehad marked effects on various growth parameters and photosynthetic pigments, which may be potentially significant and promising for sustainable mungbean cultivation.
