Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation of Sesbania rostrata

Plant Science, 2003
In order to study the function of nodulin genes and the activity of their promoters, the Agrobacterium rhizogenes transformation strategy was adopted for Sesbania rostrata. Two protocols were selected to generate S. rostrata transgenic roots that can be nodulated efficiently after application of Azorhizobium caulinodans, ORS571.

Karyotype Analysis of Sesbania rostrata Brem.

Plant Breeding, 1988
AbstractThe karyotype of Sesbania rostrata, a species endemic to West Africa, which produces nitrogen fixing, nodules on stem and branches, was analysed. The somatic chromosome number was 12 with two pairs of long, submetacentric and four pairs of short, metacentric chromosomes. The chromosome number in another species S.

Seed production of Sesbania rostrata through vegetative propagation

2003
Three field experiments were conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh 'Agricultural University, Mymensingh to determine the suitable age of mother plant for stem cutting, the appropriate length of cutting, and the optimum date of planting, spacing and dose of TSP for seed production of Sesbania rostrata.

Photosystem II and oxygen regulation in Sesbania rostrata stem nodules

Plant, Cell & Environment, 1996
ABSTRACTThe tropical wetland legume Sesbania rostrata Brem. produces nitrogen‐fixing stem nodules which are green and contain chlorophyll, the chloroplasts being concentrated in a hand in the inner and mid‐cortex close to the nitrogen‐fixing cells. The photosystem II thylakoid membrane proteins D1, D2 and PsbO, which are essential for photo‐synthetic ...

Chitinase Gene Expression During Stem Nodulation on Sesbania rostrata

1998
Stem nodules on the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata develop after intercellular infection of adventitious root primordia by the microsymbiont Azorhizobium caulinodans strain ORS571. Development of these nodules is dependent on Nod factors and shows hybrid features with a brief indeterminate phase followed by maturation, resulting in the formation of ...

Xylem Colonization of Sesbania Rostrata by Azorhizobium Caulinodans ORS571

1999
Benign, non-rhizobial, endophytic bacteria probably exist in the xylem of many healthy plants (Bell et al., 1995; Kloepper et al., 1992), including legumes (Gagne et al., 1987). Agrobacteria, plant pathogens related closely to Rhizobium (Young, 1992), can move through the xylem of the legume Sesbania rostrata (Vlachova et al., 1987).

Early Events in the Azorhizobium Caulinodans—Sesbania Rostrata Symbiosis

1995
The symbiotic interaction between the tropical leguminous plant Sesbania rostrata and the bacterium Azorhizobium caulinodans strain ORS571 is in many aspects a unique one (De Bruijn, 1989). In contrast to most legumes that form nitrogen-fixing nodules only on the roots, S. rostrata can be nodulated on the roots and the stem.

Sesbania rostrata in Rice-Based Farming Systems of Northern Thailand

2006
Sesbania rostrata Bremek. & Oberm., a stem-nodulating species, has been the most successful green manure in increasing the yield of rainy-season lowland rice but has found little adoption in Asia, partly because its niches have not been sufficiently defined. In northern Thailand, rainfall is 1100–1300 mm.

Leghaemoglobin from Root and Stem Nodules of Sesbania Rostrata

1984
The tropical legume Sesbania rostrata forms both root and stem nodules in symbiotic association with a fast-growing Rhizobium (1). In contrast with root nodules, stem nodules harbour chloroplasts in their cortex (2) and exhibit a higher nitrogenase activity than the root nodules (3).
