Importancia de los hongos micorrizos en la producción del cultivo de maíz (Zea mays) en el Ecuador.

This investigative work addressed the issue related to the use of mycorrhizae as a biofertilizer in corn cultivation to improve the yield and productivity results of this grass, especially in places where the assimilation of nutrients is difficult, due to various factors. The main objective of this research was to establish the importance of mycorrhizal fungi in the cultivation of corn in Ecuador through a bibliographic methodological approach in order to collect information using different sources of reliable information. The development of the theoretical perspective was obtained through analysis, synthesis and summary of the information obtained, using exploratory and explanatory research techniques. According to the data obtained, it was found that inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizae to the seed or root significantly increases the yield and productivity of corn compared to control treatments where mycorrhizae were not used; In the same way, encouraging results were evidenced with respect to variables of nutrient absorption, seed insertion, yield and economic analysis. It was then concluded that the use of mycorrhizae in the cultivation of maize in Ecuador would currently become a promising strategy, with enormous potential to improve its production in a sustainable manner and reduce environmental impact.
