    Gene Discovery in Legume Nodulation: From Soybean to Lotus japonicus

    The ability of legumes to respond to bacterial signals to form nitrogen-fixing nodules has long been the focus of biologists. Recognition of (a) distinct nodule types, (b) plant genes that are expressed in nod...

    Functional Genomics of Legumes

    Advances in the field of gene discovery related to genes involved in nodulation, nitrogen fixation and root development are described. Focus is given to two legumes, namely the crop plant soybean, and the mode...

    Genome Synteny of Pea and Model Legumes: From Mutation through Genetic Map** to the Genes

    Genome synteny of crop and model legumes appears to be a key approach for sequencing symbiotic genes of several agriculturally important species (Zhu et al., 2005). To exploit genome synteny, it is necessary t...

    Plant Genes Involved in Symbiotic Signal Perception/Signal Transduction

    A host genetic programme that is initiated upon recognition of specific rhizobial Nod factors governs the symbiosis of legumes with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This programme coordinates two major developmental ...

    Receptor-mediated exopolysaccharide perception controls bacterial infection

    Surface polysaccharides are important for bacterial interactions with multicellular organisms, and some are virulence factors in pathogens. In the legume–rhizobium symbiosis, bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS)...

    Intraradical colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi triggers induction of a lipochitooligosaccharide receptor

    Functional divergence of paralogs following gene duplication is one of the mechanisms leading to evolution of novel pathways and traits. Here we show that divergence of Lys11 and Nfr5 LysM receptor kinase paralog...
