Symbiotic Plant-Bacterial Endospheric Interactions
While plant-microbe symbioses involving root nodules (Rhizobia and Frankia) or the root-soil interface (rhizosphere) have been well studied, the intimate interaction of microbial endophytes with the plant host is a relatively new field of research.[...]

Test of Host Sanction Hypothesis in Soybean Plants Co-inoculated with Nitrogen Fixing and Non-fixing Bradyrhizobium japonicum [PDF]
Aims: We tested the proposed mechanism for potential sanctions, that the plant would reduce viability of non-fixing rhizobia inside nodules, performing viable Bradyrhizobium japonicum counts from co-occupied and single-occupied nodules in co-inoculated ...

Nitrogen modulation of legume root architecture signaling pathways involves phytohormones and small regulatory molecules [PDF]
Nitrogen, particularly nitrate is an important yield determinant for crops. However, current agricultural practice with excessive fertilizer usage has detrimental effects on the environment.

Calcium spiking patterns and the role of the calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase CCaMK in lateral root base nodulation of Sesbania rostrata [PDF]
Nodulation factor (NF) signal transduction in the legume-rhizobium symbiosis involves calcium oscillations that are instrumental in eliciting nodulation.

GuaB Activity Is Required in Rhizobium tropici During the Early Stages of Nodulation of Determinate Nodules but Is Dispensable for the Sinorhizobium meliloti–Alfalfa Symbiotic Interaction [PDF]
The guaB mutant strain Rhizobium tropici CIAT8999-10T is defective in symbiosis with common bean, forming nodules that lack rhizobial content. In order to investigate the timing of the guaB requirement during the nodule formation on the host common ...

Actinorhizal plants of Turkey: formation of nodules, cluster roots and ectomycorrhizal roots
None of the known native actinorhizal species in Turkey, Alnus glutinosa and A. orientalis (Betulaceae), Datisca cannabina (Datiscaceae), Elaeagnus angustifolia and Hippophae rhamnoides (Elaeagnaceae), and the widely-planted exotic Casuarina cunninghamiana (Casuarinaceae), have confirmed records of actinorhizae in Turkey.

E151 (sym15), A Pleiotropic Mutant of Pea (Pisum sativum L.), Displays Low Nodule Number, Enhanced Mycorrhizae, Delayed Lateral Root Emergence, and High Root Cytokinin Levels [PDF]
In legumes, the formation of rhizobial and mycorrhizal root symbioses is a highly regulated process which requires close communication between plant and microorganism.

Electricity-powered artificial root nodule. [PDF]
Root nodules are agricultural-important symbiotic plant-microbe composites in which microorganisms receive energy from plants and reduce dinitrogen (N2) into fertilizers.

Permanent improved high-quality draft genome sequence of Nocardia casuarinae strain BMG51109, an endophyte ofactinorhizal root nodules of Casuarina glauca [PDF]
Here, we report the first genome sequence of aNocardiaplant endophyte, N. casuarinaestrain BMG51109, isolated fromCasu-arina glaucaroot nodules. The improved high-quality draft genome sequence contains 8,787,999 bp with a 68.90% GC contentand 7,307 ...

A Model for the Development of the Rhizobial and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbioses in Legumes and Its Use to Understand the Roles of Ethylene in the Establishment of these two Symbioses [PDF]
We propose a model depicting the development of nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizae. Both processes are dissected into many steps, using Pisum sativum L. nodulation mutants as a guideline. For nodulation, we distinguish two main developmental programs,
