Drought stress poses increasingly serious threats to agricultural production in the era of global climate change. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are well-recognized biostimulants promoting plant tolerance drought stress. Lipids indispensable for AM fungal colonization, however, involvement lipid metabolism conferred by is largely unknown. In this study, we inoculated Poncirus trifoliata (L.) with Rhizophagus irregularis DAOM197198 under no stress, medium and severe non-inoculation respective treatments as control. Results indicated that inoculation significantly promoted P. (L.), effect size decreasing along severity. Moreover, was related arbuscule abundance. Fatty acid profiling showed abundance determined AM-specific phospholipids (PLs), whose biosynthesis delivery were inhibited revealed qRT-PCR FatM , RAM1 STR / STR2 . More interestingly, increased allocation total PLs unsaturation rate neutral lipids (NLs), probably indicating non-AM-specific tolerance. Taken together, our results demonstrate mediates inoculation, functioning therein different ways.
