Restriction of Host Range by the sym2 Allele of Afghan Pea Is Nonspecific for the Type of Modification at the Reducing Terminus of Nodulation Signals

Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae strains producing lipo-chitin oligosaccharides (LCOs) that are O-acetylated at the reducing terminus are required for nodulation of wild pea cultivars originating from Afghanistan that possess the recessive sym2A allele.
