How Rhizobia Adapt to the Nodule Environment
Rhizobia are a phylogenetically diverse group of soil bacteria that engage in mutualistic interactions with legume plants. Although specifics of the symbioses differ between strains and plants, all symbioses ultimately result in the formation of ...

Rhizobia use a pathogenic-like effector to hijack leguminous nodulation signalling
Legume plants form a root-nodule symbiosis with rhizobia. This symbiosis establishment generally relies on rhizobium-produced Nod factors (NFs) and their perception by leguminous receptors (NFRs) that trigger nodulation.

Summary Many plant species simultaneously interact with multiple symbionts, which can, but do not always, generate synergistic benefits for their host. We ask if plant life history (i.e.

The genetics of symbiotic nitrogen fixation: Comparative genomics of 14 rhizobia strains by resolution of protein clusters [PDF]
The symbiotic relationship between legumes and nitrogen fixing bacteria is critical for agriculture, as it may have profound impacts on lowering costs for farmers, on land sustainability, on soil quality, and on mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions ...

Effectiveness of nitrogen fixation in rhizobia
Biological nitrogen fixation in rhizobia occurs primarily in root or stem nodules and is induced by the bacteria present in legume plants. This symbiotic process has fascinated researchers for over a century, and the positive effects of legumes on soils ...

The Diversity of Phaseolus-Nodulating Rhizobial Populations Is Altered by Liming of Acid Soils Planted with Phaseolus vulgaris L. in Brazil [PDF]
PCR-mediated restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the 16S-23S rRNA internally transcribed spacer (ITS) region and the 16S rRNA gene indicated that the rhizobial populations isolated from common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) nodules ...

Mycorrhizal Symbiosis Modulates the Rhizosphere Microbiota to Promote Rhizobia-Legume Symbiosis.
Plants establish symbioses with mutualistic fungi, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and bacteria, such as rhizobia, to exchange key nutrients and thrive.
