All eukaryotic organisms have evolved sophisticated immune systems to appropriately
respond to biotic stresses. In plants and animals, a key part of this immune system is pattern …

Legumes, unlike most land plants, can form symbiotic root nodules with nitrogen‐fixing
bacteria to secure nitrogen for growth. The formation of nitrogen‐fixing nodules on legume …

Most land plants benefit from endosymbiotic interactions with mycorrhizal fungi, including
legumes and some nonlegumes that also interact with endosymbiotic nitrogen (N)-fixing …

Plants use cell-surface immune receptors to recognize pathogen-specific patterns to evoke
basal immunity. ENHANCED DISEASE SUSCEPTIBILITY (EDS1) is known to be crucial for …

Proximity labeling is a powerful approach for detecting protein-protein interactions. Most
proximity labeling techniques use a promiscuous biotin ligase or a peroxidase fused to a …

Legume-rhizobium signaling during establishment of symbiotic nitrogen fixation restricts
rhizobium colonization to specific cells. A limited number of root hair cells allow infection …

Organogenesis of legume root nodules begins with the nodulation factor‐dependent
stimulation of compatible root cells to initiate divisions, signifying an early nodule …

Key message Compatible interaction between rhizobial Nod factors and host receptors
enables initial recognition and signaling events during legume-rhizobia symbiosis. Abstract …

Legumes represent an important source of food protein for human nutrition and animal feed.
Therefore, sustainable production of legume crops is an issue of global importance. It is well …

Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are the two predominant mineral elements, which are not
only essential for plant growth and development in general but also play a key role in …
