Medicago truncatula is a model legume species that has been studied for decades to understand the symbiotic relationship between legumes and soil bacteria collectively named rhizobia.This symbiosis called nodulation i...

Legumes establish symbiotic associations with rhizobia for biological nitrogen fixation.This process is highly regulated by various abiotic stresses,but the underlying genetic and molecular mechanisms remain largely u...
Legume rhizobium symbiosis is initiated upon perception of bacterial secreted lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs). Perception of these signals by the plant initiates a signaling cascade that leads to nodule formation....
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are continuously produced as a result of aerobic metabolism or in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. ROS are not only toxic by-products of aerobic metabolism, but are also signali...
