Many legumes respond to Rhizobium inoculation by developing unique structures known as
nodules on their roots. The development of a legume nodule in which rhizobia convert …

An overview of data on plant morphogenesis and nodulin gene expression elicited by
Rhizobium symbiotic signals and on diverse mechanisms for nodulin regulation during …

summary Nodulation is reviewed in terms of the phenotypes proposed by Vincent (1980).
Individual legumes may be infectible by one or more of the three bacterial genera …

The symbiosis between legumes and nitrogen fixing bacteria called rhizobia leads to the
formation of root nodules. Nodules are highly organized root organs that form in response to …

Global demand to increase food production and simultaneously reduce synthetic nitrogen
fertilizer inputs in agriculture are underpinning the need to intensify the use of legume crops …

During the formation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules, the establishment of the symbiotic
relationsgip between rhizobia and leguminous plants depends on a highly specific …

The rhizobia comprise a diverse group of organisms that elicit hypertrophic growth on the
roots of legume plants to form a new organ, the root nodule, which they inhabit to fix …

A bstract Under nitrogen-limiting conditions, bacteria from the family Rhizobiaceae establish
a symbiosis with leguminous plants to form nitrogen-fixing root nodules. These organs …

The formation of nitrogen-fixing nodules on legumes requires an integration of infection by
rhizobia at the root epidermis and the initiation of cell division in the cortex, several cell …

▪ Abstract Symbiosis between rhizobia and leguminous plants leads to the formation of N2-
fixing root nodules. The interaction of rhizobia and plants shows a high degree of host …
