Since legumes spend up to 4e16% of photosynthesis on each of the rhizobial and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal symbioses, it might be expected that positive responses in yield due to rhizobial and AM symbioses are accompanied by decreases in seed protein and lipid mass fractions due to a photosynthate (C) limitation. We performed a meta-analysis of 348 data points from published studies with 12 legume species to test whether yield, harvest index, and seed protein and lipid mass fractions are affected by symbioses. aHarvest index aInoculation methods aRoot inoculation aSeed inoculation aSoil inoculation aInoculação aC limitation aSink stimulation of photosynthesis1 aLEFFELAAR, P.
