In a new study, scientists used nearly every tool in their toolkit—genomics, transcriptomics, greenhouse experiments and ...

Legumes secretly rely on zinc to manage nitrogen fixation. A new discovery of the zinc sensor FUN could transform crop yields ...

Root nodule symbiosis enables legumes to grow under nitrogen-limiting conditions where most of non-leguminous plants cannot survive. Researchers in Japan now have a better understanding of how the ...

As the root nodule further develops, you see GA accumulating at quite high concentrations and remaining at high levels in the mature nodule." ...

Root nodule symbioses with nitrogen-fixing bacteria provide many plants with a source of nitrogen. This study uncovers evidence that changes in the gene SYMRK were involved in the evolution of ...

We examined the development of the aquatic N2-fixing symbiosis between Rhizobium sp. (Neptunia) and roots of Neptunia natans L. f. (Druce) (previously N. oleracea Lour.) under natural and laboratory ...

DAP isomer analysis of genetically more distinct `Alnus-type' root nodules, i.e. those of Myrica gale and Hippophae rhamnoides, were used as reference. No additional taxonomic differences were found ...
