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 …

In this year there is the 40th anniversary of the first publication of plant nitric oxide (NO)
emission by Lowell Klepper. In the decades since then numerous milestone discoveries …

Rhizobium‐induced root nodules are specialized organs for symbiotic nitrogen fixation.
Indeterminate‐type nodules are formed from an apical meristem and exhibit a spatial …

New research results have significantly revised our understanding of the rhizobium–legume
infection process. For example, Nod factors (NFs), previously thought to be absolutely …

Symbioses with microbes play a pivotal role in the evolutionary success of insects, and can
lead to intimate host–symbiont associations. However, how the host maintains a stable …

Abstract Significance: During the Legume–Rhizobium symbiosis, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)
and nitric oxide (NO) appear to play an important signaling role in the establishment and the …

Nitric oxide (NO) is an active and critical nitrogen oxide in the microbe-driven nitrogen
biogeochemical cycle, and is of great interest to medicine and the biological sciences. As a …

A key feature in the establishment of symbiosis between plants and microbes is the
maintenance of the balance between the production of the small redox-related molecule …

Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) is an important greenhouse gas (GHG) with substantial global
warming potential and also contributes to ozone depletion through photochemical nitric …
