Usually, the infection triggers the plant defense system to minimize the damages. However, the effects of the infection on soybean plant metabolism are still unclear. In this work, the metabolic profiles of soybean stems and leaves were accessed using 1H HR-MAS NMR spectroscopy to identify metabolic changes as a response to S. sclerotiorum infection. This fungus widely affects the central metabolism of soybean plants, and most of the altered metabolites are involved in carbon metabolism, as suggested by the results. Furthermore, the metabolites of central metabolism can be associated with the production of several polyphenolic metabolites. Changes in metabolic profile of leaves indicate systemic effects.engAcesso RestritoMetabolic response of soybean plants to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infectionArtigo10.1016/j.phytochem.2019.112099
