Rhizobium etli Mutant Modulates Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism in Phaseolus vulgaris Nodules
The aim of this study was to evaluate the biochemical events in root nodules which lead to increased yield when bean is inoculated with a Rhizobium etli mutant (CFN037) having increased respiratory capacity. CFN037-inoculated plants had 22% more nitrogen

Disruption of Asparagine Synthetase Is Associated to Increased Biomass in Lotus japonicus
ABSTRACT Asparagine (Asn) constitutes the major form of nitrogen translocated within Lotus japonicus plants. In this work we use knock‐out (KO) LORE1 mutants‐deficient in the asparagine synthetase gene (LjASN1), which is the most highly expressed ASN gene in plants grown under non‐symbiotic (NS) conditions, but much less expressed under symbiotic (S ...

Ureide Catabolism of Soybeans [PDF]
Allantoin catabolism studies have been extended to intact leaf tissue of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.). Phenyl phosphordiamidate, one of the most potent urease inhibitors known, does not inhibit (14)CO(2) release from [2,7-(14)C]allantoin (urea labeled), but inhibits urea dependent CO(2) release >/=99.9% under similar conditions. Furthermore, (14)CO(2)

Comparative proteomics analysis of root and nodule mitochondria of soybean
Abstract Legumes perform symbiotic nitrogen fixation through rhizobial bacteroids housed in specialised root nodules. The biochemical process is energy‐intensive and consumes a huge carbon source to generate sufficient reducing power. To maintain the symbiosis, malate is supplied by legume nodules to bacteroids as their major carbon and energy source ...

Editing a gibberellin receptor gene improves yield and nitrogen fixation in soybean
Knockout of the soybean gibberellin receptor gene GmGID1‐2 reduced plant height; strengthened stems; increased the number of branches, nodes, pods, and seeds; and improved yield, seed oil content and nitrogen fixation. ABSTRACT Soybean is an important source of oil, protein, and feed. However, its yield is far below that of major cereal crops.

Nitrogen transport in the orchid mycorrhizal symbiosis - further evidence for a mutualistic association. [PDF]
Mycorrhizas are symbioses integral to the health of plant-based ecosystems (Smith & Read, 2008). In a typical mycorrhizal association, fungi in, or on, plant roots pass soil-acquired inorganic nutrients and water to the plant host.

The inoculation of plants with growth‐promoting and nitrogen‐fixing bacteria is considered an effective alternative to reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizers and promote plant growth. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of inoculation and co‐inoculation with growth‐promoting bacteria on the physiological traits and growth of chickpea plants.
