4D spatial transcriptomics reveals nodule identity emerges through stacked parallel developmental programs

Min-Yao Jhu, Jo Heffer, Chongjing Xia, Thiago Alexandre Moraes, Claire M. Mulvey, Dario Bressan, C LIU, Jin‐Peng Gao, Philip Simon Poole, Katharina Schiessl, Giles E. D. Oldroyd

This paper presents a 4D spatial transcriptomic atlas of Medicago truncatula nodules and lateral roots, revealing how nodule identity emerges through stacked developmental programs.

The demonstration of a single origin for nodule evolution, with nodule engineering in a non-nodulating species

Anindya Kundu, Robert Jordan Price, Esther Rosales Sanchez, Ivan Reyna‐Llorens, Min-Yao Jhu, Jin‐Peng Gao, Thiago Alexandre Moraes, Federico Marangelli, Cyril Libourel, Jean Keller, Jack Brooks, Wendy Harwood, Emma J. Wallington, Pierre‐Marc Delaux, Richard J. Harrison, Giles E. D. Oldroyd

This study shows that nodule development can be engineered in non-nodulating species by restoring NIN functionality, supporting a single origin for nodulation.
