Symbiotic association of plants with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi brings about changes in levels of the phytohormone jasmonate (JA) in root and shoot tissues of a plant. The enhanced JA levels not only play a role in controlling the extent of AM colonization but are also involved in the expression of mycorrhizal-induced resistance (MIR) against pathogens. We describe a method used to study the levels of a volatile jasmonate derivative, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), in tomato plants colonized by AM fungi and in response to subsequent attack by the foliar pathogen Alternaria alternata.
