Medicago truncatula CORYNE modulates inflorescence meristem branching, nutrient signaling, and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis

Johnathan Orosz, Erica Xinlei Lin, Yerisf C. Torres Ascurra, Mikayla Kappes, Penelope L. Lindsay, Sagar Bashyal, Hasani Everett, Chandan Kumar Gautam, David P. Jackson, Lena Müller

This study identifies Medicago truncatula CRN as a regulator of inflorescence meristem branching and root interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, with effects independent of MtCLE53.

TML1 AND TML2 SYNERGISTICALLY REGULATE NODULATION AND AFFECT ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZA IN MEDICAGO TRUNCATULA

Diptee Chaulagain, Elise L. Schnabel, Mikayla Kappes, Erica Xinlei Lin, Lena Müller, Julia A. Frugoli

This study investigates the role of MtTML1 and MtTML2 in nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhiza in M. truncatula, finding that their mutations lead to increased nodules and a synergistic effect.
