Medicago sativa and Medicago truncatula Show Contrasting Root Metabolic Responses to Drought [PDF]
Drought is an environmental stressor that affects crop yield worldwide. Understanding plant physiological responses to stress conditions is needed to secure food in future climate conditions. In this study, we applied a combination of plant physiology and metabolomic techniques to understand plant responses to progressive water deficit focusing on the ...

Symbiotic outcome modified by the diversification from 7 to over 700 nodule specific cysteine rich peptides [PDF]
Legume-rhizobium symbiosis represents one of the most successfully co-evolved mutualisms. Within nodules, the bacterial cells undergo distinct metabolic and morphological changes and differentiate into nitrogen-fixing bacteroids.
