Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) plants were colonized by the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. and Gerd.) Gerd. and Trappe (VAM plants) or fertilized with KH2PO4 (nonVAM plants) and grown for 50 days under controlled conditions. Plants were harvested over a 4-day period during which the soil was permitted to dry slowly. The harvest was terminated when leaf gas exchange was no longer measurable due to drought stress. Significantly different effects in shoot water content, but not in shoot water potential, were found in VAM and nonVAM plants in response to drought stress. Leaf conductances of the two treatments showed similar response patterns to changes in soil water and shoot water potential but were significantly different in magnitude and trend relative to shoot water content. The relationships between transpiration, CO2 exchange and water-use efficiency (WUE) were the same in VAM and nonVAM plants in response to decreasing soil water and shoot water potential. As a function of shoot water content, however, WUE showed different response patterns in VAM and nonVAM plants.
