In treatments without Pb in the soil, the AMF inoculation stimulated
the production of geranial (from 1.6 to 58.97%). In the other
hand, in treatments with Pb levels applied to the soil and AMF inoculation,
no considerable variations were observed in the production
of geranial with the increasing levels of Pb in the soil (Table 2), suggesting
the protection of the major component by the AMF. The
EO of lemon grass plants that were inoculated with AMF presented
19.22% linalool oxide. However, under increased Pb levels in the
soil, linalool oxide content decreased to 2.07% (Table 2)
