Summary: ABSTRACT: Cassava plants are highly dependent on arbuscular mycorrhiza for its optimum growth. Its cultivation in cerrado soil requires soil and culture management as soil liming and fertilization and crop rotation. Though, higher plant growth and root yield are attained and applied inputs are better usen when the cassava plants are mycorrhizal. The adequate liming and fertilization procedures and rotational crop sequences, improve the native community of those fungi in the soil, in quantity and quality, by favoring the re-establishment of species efficient for the crop. Mycorrhiza contribution to cassava growth and root production occurs even in soils well fertilized, resulting in higher productivity.
