Aboveground plant-to-plant communication reduces root nodule symbiosis and soil nutrient concentrations [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractAboveground communication between plants is well known to change defense traits in leaves, but its effects on belowground plant traits and soil characteristics have not been elucidated. We hypothesized that aboveground plant-to-plant communication reduces root nodule symbiosis via induction of bactericidal chemical defense substances and ...

Isolation and Characterization of Nodule-Associated Exiguobacterium sp. from the Root Nodules of Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and Their Possible Role in Plant Growth Promotion [PDF]
International Journal of Microbiology, 2012 One of the ways to increase the competitive survivability of rhizobial biofertilizers and thus achieve better plant growth under such conditions is by modifying the rhizospheric environment or community by addition of nonrhizobial nodule-associated ...

Developmental Biology of a Plant-Prokaryote Symbiosis: The Legume Root Nodule
Science, 1990 The development of nitrogen fixing root nodules on the roots of leguminous plants is induced by soil bacteria (for example, from the genus Rhizobium ). The formation of this plant organ involves specific activation of genes in both plant and bacterium.

Metabolite pattern in root nodules of the actinorhizal plant Casuarina equisetifolia
Phytochemistry, 2021 Casuarina equisetifolia L. (Casuarinaceae), an actinorhizal plant, exhibits mutualistic symbiosis with Frankia and promotes nitrogen fixation in root nodules. While the exchange of metabolites between host plant and microsymbiont is well understood in legume symbioses, the situation in the symbiosis between nitrogen-fixing Frankia and actinorhizal ...

Expression of plant genes during the development of pea root nodules
The EMBO Journal, 1985 The expression of plant genes involved in the pea-Rhizobium symbiosis was studied by analysing mRNA from root nodules. The RNA was translated in vitro and the translation products were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The results show differential expression of nodulin genes during root nodule development.

Peroxidase Isozymes in Root Nodules of Various Leguminous Plants [PDF]
Nature, 1963 MULTIPLE forms of various enzymes (isozymes) have been shown in tissues of animals1–3 and plants4,5 and in micro-organisms6. The difference in electrophoretic mobility of some isozymes obtained from different species has been reported4,5,7. This communication reports the existence of peroxidase isozymes which differ electrophoretically in root nodules ...

Seed size influences the promoting activity of rhizobia on plant growth, nodulation and N fixation in lima bean [PDF]
Ciência Rural, 2021 : This study evaluated the activity of rhizobia isolates inoculated in large (18 mm) and small (11 mm) seeds on lima bean growth, nodulation and N fixation. Selected rhizobia isolates were compared with a reference strain CIAT899 and two controls without
