Single-cell analysis identifies genes facilitating rhizobium infection in Lotus japonicus
Abstract Legume-rhizobium signaling during establishment of symbiotic nitrogen fixation restricts rhizobium colonization to specific cells. A limited number of root hair cells allow infection threads to form, and only a fraction of the epidermal infection threads progress to cortical layers to estab...
