The study aims at investigating the efficacy of individual as well as combined application of AM fungi (Glomus macrocarpum) and ZnO nanoparticles on the uptake of lead and its toxicity in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The plants were grown in pots with different treatments of AM Fungi, ZnO NP, and Pb. The individual applications of AM fungi (Glomus macrocarpum) and ZnO NPs increased the growth and biochemical attributes of wheat and decreased the Pb uptake under Pb stress. The combined application of AM fungi (Glomus macrocarpum) and ZnO nanoparticles synergistically enhanced the overall growth performance of the plant and significantly reduced the uptake of Pb in wheat grown in Pb spiked soils. The combined application was effective, with 30.66 % increase in plant height, 30.62 % increase in plant fresh weight, 54.26 % increase in plant dry weight, 45.45 % increase in total chlorophyll content, 19.59 % increase in proline content, 26.65 % higher activity of SOD, 15.12 % higher activity of catalase (CAT), 17.69 % increase in H2O2 content, 17.69 % increase in lipid peroxidation content, 52.09 % and 58.19 % decrease in Pb concentration in root and shoot of wheat, respectively, grown in Pb spiked soil (100 mg kg(-1) soil). The results indicate that combined application of AM fungi and ZnO nanoparticles can be a promising technique for the utilization of Pb-contaminated soils.
