Laser microdissection (LMD) technology has been widely applied to plant tissues, offering novel information on the role of different cell-type populations during plant-microbe interactions. In this chapter, protocols to apply the LMD approach to study plant and fungal transcript profiles in different cell-type populations from arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) roots are described in detail, starting from the biological material preparation to gene expression analyses by RT-PCR and RT-qPCR.
