Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AMs) are a unique example of symbiosis between two eukaryotes, soil fungi and plants. This association induces important physiological changes in each partner that lead to reciprocal benefits, mainly in nutrient supply. The symbiosis results from modifications in plant and fungal cell organization caused by specific changes in gene expression. Recently, much effort has gone into studying these gene expression patterns to identify a wider spectrum of genes involved. We aim in this review to describe AM symbiosis in terms of current knowledge on plant and fungal gene expression profiles.
丛枝菌根（AM）是两种真核生物——土壤真菌和植物之间共生关系的独特范例。这种共生关系会在每个共生伙伴中引发重要的生理变化，从而带来互惠互利的结果，主要体现在养分供应方面。这种共生关系源于基因表达的特定变化所引起的植物和真菌细胞组织的改变。最近，人们投入了大量精力来研究这些基因表达模式，以识别更多参与其中的基因。在这篇综述中，我们旨在根据目前关于植物和真菌基因表达谱的知识来描述AM共生关系。
