The intracellular infection thread initiated in a root hair cell is a unique structure associated
with Rhizobium-legume symbiosis. It is characterized by inverted tip growth of the plant cell …

Autophagy is a genetically regulated, eukaryotic catabolic pathway that responds to internal
and external cellular signals. In plants, it plays crucial roles in development, and responses …

Legume–rhizobia symbiosis enables biological nitrogen fixation to improve crop production
for sustainable agriculture. Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are involved in multiple …

Drought and extreme temperatures significantly limit chickpea productivity worldwide. The
regulation of plant programmed cell death pathways is emerging as a key component of …

In the symbiotic associations between rhizobia and legumes, the NodD regulators
orchestrate the transcription of the specific nodulation genes. This set of genes is involved in …

The interaction of plants and soil bacteria rhizobia leads to the formation of root nodule
symbiosis. The intracellular form of rhizobia, the symbiosomes, are able to perform the …

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are ubiquitous proteins present in all organisms. The
sHSPs are not only upregulated under heat shock as well as other stresses but also are …

Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are present in all domains of life. These proteins are
responsible for binding unfolded proteins to prevent their aggregation. sHsps form dynamic …
