Endophytes, which are widely found in host plants and have no harmful effects, are a vital
biological resource. Plant endophytes promote plant growth and enhance plants' resistance …

Symbiotic nitrogen fixation carried out by the interaction between legumes and rhizobia is
the main source of nitrogen in natural ecosystems and in sustainable agriculture. For the …

Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia lead to the development of root
nodules and nitrogen fixation by differentiated bacteroids within nodules. Differentiation of …

Legumes control root nodule symbiosis (RNS) in response to environmental nitrogen
availability. Despite the recent understanding of the molecular basis of external nitrate …

Iron is an essential element for most organisms. Both plants and microorganisms have
developed different mechanisms for iron uptake, transport and storage. In the symbiosis …

Bacteroid (name for rhizobia inside nodule cells) differentiation is a prerequisite for
successful nitrogen‐fixing symbiosis. In certain legumes, under the regulation of host …

Legumes have evolved a nitrogen‐fixing symbiotic interaction with rhizobia, and this
association helps them to cope with the limited nitrogen conditions in soil. The compatible …

Covering 1965 to February 2024Plants are prolific peptide chemists and are known to make
thousands of different peptidic molecules. These peptides vary dramatically in their size …

Plants depend heavily on soil nutrients for growth, development and defence. Nutrient
availability is crucial not only for sustaining vital biochemical processes but also for …

In the nodules of IRLC legumes, including Medicago truncatula, nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia
undergo terminal differentiation resulting in elongated and endoreduplicated bacteroids …
