Cotton growers from Northern Cameroon use chemical fertilizers to improve soil fertility. However, the use of chemical fertilizers exhibits an immediate solution to decline of soil fertility problem, but its exclusive use causes an increase of soil degradation. With the aim of sustainably increasing of cotton growth in Cameroon, study was conducted to evaluate effects of combinations of various strains of endogenous mycorrhizal fungi from Sudano-Sahelian savannahs of Cameroon on cotton productivity. Colonization rate, AMF diversity, cotton growth and yield were assessed according to suitable methods. Regarding the assessment of cotton productivy a 8×3×2 experimental design with 08 types of treatments, 03 experimental sites (Djalingo, Djabi and Djaba), and 02 cotton varieties (IRMA Q302 and IRMA L457) were used. Results shown that the colonization rate of cotton plant roots is higher in the Division of Mayo-Rey (93.33%). The cotton plants growth varies according to fertilizer and experimental area. There is no significant difference between cotton varieties relative to seeds yield and fibers yield. Endogenous mycorrhizal strains from Northern Cameroon better improve cotton productivity in our study areas than exogenous mycorrhizal strains in the range of 5 to 70%. Cotton fibers yield from Djaba site were 1.85 and 2.02 folds greater than that from Djalingo and Djabi respectively. Based on these results, the domestication and application of endogenous mycorrhizal fungi in North Cameroon for cotton growth is a contribution to increase cotton productivity and to limit the use of chemical inputs, as well as a guarantee of sustainable agriculture.
