Leaf metabolome in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis

- Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in plant roots systemically affect leaf metabolites.
- Targeted analyses reveal effects on certain leaf primary and secondary metabolites.
- Omics approaches are needed to gain comprehensive insights into leaf responses.
- Many metabolite classes of various plant species respond specifically.
- Mycorrhiza-mediated metabolic changes affect interactions with the environment.
