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 ...

How legumes recognize rhizobia [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2015 Legume plants have developed the capacity to establish symbiotic interactions with soil bacteria (known as rhizobia) that can convert N2 to molecular forms that are incorporated into the plant metabolism. The first step of this relationship is the recognition of bacteria by the plant, which allows to distinguish potentially harmful species from ...

Agronomie, 2001 Rhizobia are the bacteria that form nitrogen-fixing symbioses with legumes. Based on their characterisation by polyphasic taxonomy, their classification has undergone great changes in recent years. The current six rhizobium genera and 28 recognised species are reviewed here.

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.

Specificity in Legume-Rhizobia Symbioses [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 The Leguminosae (legume family) is divided into three sub-families, the Caesalpiniodeae, Mimosoideae and Papilionoideae. Here, the literature on legume-rhizobia symbioses was reviewed, and genotypically characterised rhizobia related to the taxonomy of the legumes they were isolated from. Only data from field soils were considered. The objective of the

CRISPR-induced knockouts reveal a dual role for the soybean NFR5α gene in symbiotic nitrogen fixation and root hair development. [PDF]
Plant GenomeAbstract Nitrogen fixation in soybeans, facilitated by symbiotic interactions with rhizobia, is a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. However, the efficiency of symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) varies due to natural genetic variation in SNF‐related genes.

Explaining coexistence of nitrogen fixing and non-fixing rhizobia in legume-rhizobia mutualism using mathematical modeling [PDF]
, 2017 In the mutualism established between legumes and soil bacteria known as rhizobia, bacteria from soil infect plants roots and reproduce inside root nodules where they fix atmospheric N2 for plant nutrition, receiving carbohydrates in exchange.

Phenotypic, Molecular and Symbiotic Characterization of the Rhizobial Symbionts of Desmanthus paspalaceus (Lindm.) Burkart That Grow in the Province of Santa Fe, Argentina [PDF]
, 2014 Desmanthus paspalaceus (Lindm.) Burkart belongs to the D. virgatus complex, subfamily Mimosoidae. The known potential as livestock fodder of several of these legumes prompted us to undertake a phenotypic, molecular, and symbiotic characterization of the ...
