An expression database for roots of the model legume
Background Medicago truncatula is a model legume whose genome is currently being sequenced by an international consortium. Abiotic stresses such as salt stress limit plant growth and crop productivity, including those of legumes.

The C function gene AGAMOUS (AG) encodes for a MADS-box transcription factor required for floral organ identity and floral meristem (FM) determinacy in angiosperms. Unlike Arabidopsis, most legume plants possess two AG homologs arose by an ancient genome

Aluminum (Al) is solubilized as phytotoxic Al3+ in acidic soils, rapidly inhibiting root elongation. To detoxify Al, plant roots secrete organic acids that chelate the ion. The transcription factor SENSITIVE-TO-PROTON-RHIZOTOXICITY1 (STOP1) regulates the

Engineering transkingdom signalling in plants to control gene expression in rhizosphere bacteria
The root microbiota is critical for promoting crop yield. Here, the authors create a synthetic pathway for the production of the rhizopine scyllo-inosamine in Medicago truncatula and barley, and show its perception by rhizosphere bacteria for targeted ...
