  abstract = {{W}e examined local arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal ({AMF}) plant symbioses for their potential for land rehabilitation after sand industrial exploitation in a study site of the coastal sand quarry of {T}erga ({NW} {A}lgeria, semi-arid climate). {W}e focused on the mycorrhizal status of five representative plant species ({A}cacia saligna, {L}otus creticus, {R}etama monosperma, {P}istacia lentiscus and {J}uniperus oxycedrus) present in the {T}erga quarry. {T}he arbuscular mycorrhizal ({AM}) structures showed significant and contrasting rates of root colonization among plant species. {S}pores density in soil was generally high, but variable depending on soil disturbance and local conditions. {AMF} diversity study in the rhizospheric soil fraction resulted in the distinction of eleven spore morphotypes affiliated to four genera ({G}lomus, {S}cutellospora, {G}igaspora and {A}caulospora) with predominance of {G}lomus. {T}he mycorrhizal soil infectivity ({MSI}) level could be considered as significant except in the rhizosphere of {R}. monosperma. {O}ur results suggest that {A}. saligna, {L}. creticus and {P}. lentiscus are well adapted to {T}erga local conditions and promote arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis. {M}anagement of mycorrhizal soil potential by introducing these species is very promising approach to contribute to degraded ecosystem rehabilitation such as in {T}erga. {T}hey may further constitute an important source of {AM} inoculum in semi-arid ecosystems.},
