Legume Nitrogen Fixing Symbiosis

Global analysis of Two Component System (TCS) member of chickpea and other legume genomes implicates its role in enhanced nodulation

The paper analyzes Two Component System (TCS) genes in legumes to understand their role in cytokinin-mediated nodulation, finding functional divergence in response regulators and conserved histidine kinases.

Plant-specific histone deacetylases are essential for early as well as late stages of Medicago nodule development

Plant-specific histone deacetylases regulate the expression of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductases to control root nodule development.

AhNGE : A Database for Arachis hypogaea Nodule Developmental Gene Expression

AhNGE provides RNAseq data and ortholog analysis for peanut nodule development, enabling comparative genomics with other legumes and non-legumes.

Insights into the evolution of symbiosis gene copy number and distribution from a chromosome-scale Lotus japonicus Gifu genome sequence

The paper presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly for L. japonicus Gifu, revealing differences in symbiotic gene organization compared to Medicago truncatula.

A Virtual Nodule Environment (ViNE) for modelling the inter-kingdom metabolic integration during symbiotic nitrogen fixation

The paper models the inter-kingdom metabolic integration during symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula and Sinorhizobium meliloti using in silico reconstruction and flux balance analysis.

Symbiosis genes show a unique pattern of introgression and selection within a Rhizobium leguminosarum species complex

The paper analyzes introgression and selection patterns in symbiosis genes within Rhizobium leguminosarum isolates, finding limited introgression confined to plasmids and chromosomal islands.

Identification of candidate genes underlying nodulation-specific phenotypes in Medicago truncatula through integration of genome-wide association studies and co-expression networks

The paper integrates GWAS and co-expression networks to identify candidate genes associated with nodule-related phenotypes in Medicago truncatula.

Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens USDA 110-Glycine max interactome provides candidate proteins associated with symbiosis

The paper constructs an inter-species protein interactome between Glycine max and Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens USDA 110, identifies key symbiosis-related proteins, and highlights potential molecular mechanisms of root nodule symbiosis.
