Mechanisms underlying legume–rhizobium symbioses
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 …

Invasion by invitation: rhizobial infection in legumes
JD Murray - Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2011 - Am Phytopath Society
Nodulation of legume roots typically begins with rhizobia attaching to the tip of a growing
root-hair cell. The attached rhizobia secrete Nod factors (NF), which are perceived by the …

Legume pectate lyase required for root infection by rhizobia
To allow rhizobial infection of legume roots, plant cell walls must be locally degraded for
plant-made infection threads (ITs) to be formed. Here we identify a Lotus japonicus …

Differential regulation of the Epr3 receptor coordinates membrane-restricted rhizobial colonization of root nodule primordia
Abstract In Lotus japonicus, a LysM receptor kinase, EPR3, distinguishes compatible and
incompatible rhizobial exopolysaccharides at the epidermis. However, the role of this …
