The Lotus japonicus alpha Expansin EXPA1 is recruited during intracellular and intercellular rhizobial colonization

Jesús Montiel, Ivette García‐Soto, Elizabeth Monroy‐Morales, Beatrice Lace, Mariana Robledo‐Gamboa, Mads Vestergaard, Niels Sandal, Thomas Ott, Jens Stougaard

This study shows that LjEXPA1 is essential for both intracellular and intercellular rhizobial colonization in Lotus japonicus by remodeling cell walls during symbiosis.
