Cadmium (Cd) pollution in croplands is a global environmental problem. Measures to improve the tolerance of sensitive crops and reduce pollutant absorption and accumulation are needed in contaminated agricultural areas, and inoculation with rhizosphere microorganisms to regulate plant resistance and heavy metal transport can provide an effective solution. A pot experiment was conducted to analyse the impact of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on alfalfa oxidase activity, heavy metal resistance genes and transport proteins, metabolism, and other biochemical regulation mechanisms that lead to complexation, compartmentalisation, efflux, enrichment, and antioxidant detoxification pathways. The AMF reduced shoot and protoplasm Cd inflow, and promoted organic compound production (e.g., by upregulating HM-Res4 for 1.2 times), to complex with Cd, reducing its biological toxicity. The AMF increased the ROS scavenging efficiency and osmotic regulatory substance content of the alfalfa plants, reduced oxidative stress (ROS dereased), and maintained homeostasis. It also alleviated Cd inhibition of photosynthetic electron transport, tricarboxylic acid circulation, and nitrogen assimilation. These AMF effects improved leaf and root biomass by 43.87% and 59.71% and facilitated recovery of a conservative root economic strategy. It is speculated that AMF induces the resistance signal switch by regulating the negative feedback regulation mode of indole acetic acid upward transport and methyl jasmonate downward transmission in plants.
