Reprogramming of Gene Transcripts and Metabolites by the Wild Soybean Endophyte Pseudomonas sp. 77S3 Improves Soybean Salt Tolerance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean is a critical source of protein and vegetable oil worldwide. Expanding its cultivation into salinity lands represents a promising strategy for increasing production; however, soil salinity severely limits soybean growth by disrupting physiological and metabolic homeostasis.

Morphological and Genetic Diversity of Rhizobia Nodulating Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) from Agricultural Soils of Lower Eastern Kenya

International Journal of Microbiology, 2017
Limited nitrogen (N) content in the soil is a major challenge to sustainable and high crop production in many developing countries. The nitrogen fixing symbiosis of legumes with rhizobia plays an important role in supplying sufficient N for legumes and ...

Direct amplification of nodD from community DNA reveals the genetic diversity of Rhizobium leguminosarum in soil [PDF]

, 2001
Sequences of nodD, a gene found only in rhizobia, were amplified from total community DNA isolated from a pasture soil. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers used, Y5 and Y6, match nodD from Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii, R. leguminosarum

Legume-rhizobia symbiosis: Translatome analysis

Genetics and Molecular Biology
Leguminous plants can establish endosymbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing soil rhizobacteria. Bacterial infection and nodule organogenesis are two independent but highly coordinated genetic programs that are active during this interaction. These genetic programs can be regulated along all the stages of gene expression.

A Specific Sinorhizobium Flagellin Suppresses Legume Nodulation Through Immune Activation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacterial flagellin‐activated immunity plays a crucial role in shaping plant‐microbe interactions, leading to either parasitism, mutualism, or commensalism. In the legume‐rhizobium symbiosis, while it has been hypothesized that rhizobial infection involves avoidance of plant immunity following flagellin perception, direct evidence supporting ...

First Successful Targeted Mutagenesis Using CRISPR/Cas9 in Stably Transformed Grain Amaranth Tissue

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grain amaranth is a nutritionally rich, stress‐tolerant C4 dicot with considerable potential for climate‐resilient agriculture; however, efficient and reproducible protocols for stable transformation, regeneration, and CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated editing have not yet been established.
