Journal ArticleDOI

Hd1, a Major Photoperiod Sensitivity Quantitative Trait Locus in Rice, Is Closely Related to the Arabidopsis Flowering Time Gene CONSTANS

TL;DR: It is suggested that Hd1 functions in the promotion of heading under short- day conditions and in inhibition under long-day conditions and is a homolog of CONSTANS in Arabidopsis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant recognition of symbiotic bacteria requires two LysM receptor-like kinases

TL;DR: Two LysM-type serine/threonine receptor kinase genes, NFR1 and NFR5 are described, enabling the model legume Lotus japonicus to recognize its bacterial microsymbiont Mesorhizobium loti and their role in the mechanism establishing susceptibility of the legume root for bacterial infection is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

How many peas in a pod? Legume genes responsible for mutualistic symbioses underground.

TL;DR: A review of recent progress in molecular genetic studies using model legumes to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying plant–microbe endosymbiotic associations but also the evolutionary aspects of nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between legume plants and Rhizobium bacteria.
