Plant and aphid genotypes modulate legume rhizobium-induced defense against aphids [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologySustainable protein production is needed to ensure food security while mitigating climate change. Leguminous crops contribute to these goals by providing protein-rich seeds and improving soil fertility through nitrogen-fixing symbiosis (NFS) with ...

Rhizobia: from saprophytes to endosymbionts [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2018 Rhizobia are some of the best-studied plant microbiota. These oligotrophic Alphaproteobacteria or Betaproteobacteria form symbioses with their legume hosts. Rhizobia must exist in soil and compete with other members of the microbiota before infecting legumes and forming N2-fixing bacteroids.

Signaling in Legume–Rhizobia Symbiosis
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Legumes represent an important source of food protein for human nutrition and animal feed. Therefore, sustainable production of legume crops is an issue of global importance. It is well-known that legume-rhizobia symbiosis allows an increase in the productivity and resilience of legume crops.

Rhizobia and their bio-partners as novel drivers for functional remediation in contaminated soils
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Environmental pollutants have received considerable attention due to their serious effects on human health. There are physical, chemical, and biological means to remediate pollution; among them, bioremediation has become increasingly popular.

La flore levurienne du compost et son effet sur l’haricot (Phaseolus vulgaris)
Revue Nature et Technologie, 2022 Les levures qui font partie des microorganismes, du compost utilisé dans la fertilisation du sol, ont attiré notre attention. Leur isolement, leur dénombrement et l'étude de leurs caractères culturaux et morphologiques ont révélé leur diversité et leur ...

Frontiers in Agronomy, 2023 One billion people globally suffer from protein (amino acid) malnutrition. Grain legumes represent a solution. They recruit symbiotic rhizobia bacteria from soil into root nodules, where the rhizobia convert atmospheric nitrogen gas (N2) into ammonia ...

Dicarboxylate transport by rhizobia [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2004 Soil bacteria collectively known as rhizobia are able to convert atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia while participating in a symbiotic association with legume plants. This capability has made the bacteria an attractive research subject at many levels of investigation, especially since physiological and metabolic specialization are central to this ...
