A split-root growth system was employed to evaluate the effect of NaCl on nodule formation by soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Davis). By applying the salinity stress and rhizobial inoculum to only ...

By manipulating the molecular mechanisms that regulate soybean nodules formation, researchers hope to develop soybeans that are more efficient in making nodules and fixing nitrogen. To date a ...

Swarup Roy Choudhury, Sona Pandey, Phosphorylation-Dependent Regulation of G-Protein Cycle during Nodule Formation in Soybean, The Plant Cell, Vol. 27, No. 11 (November 2015), pp. 3260-3276 ...

Like the appendix, the nodule replenishes the bacterial community, such that during the next growing season when rhizobia re-initiate root nodule formation, the nodules will be repopulated by the ...

Novel strategy for engineering root nodule symbiosis into important crops for more sustainable agri-food systems by Lisbeth Heilesen, Aarhus University ...

As one of the earliest responders to the soil bacteria that initiate root nodule formation, ENOD40 has long served as a marker gene for studying plant-microbe root symbiosis.
