Blue Light Perception by Both Roots and Rhizobia Inhibits Nodule Formation in Lotus japonicus

In many legumes, roots that are exposed to light do not form nodules. Here, we report that blue light inhibits nodulation in Lotus japonicus roots inoculated with Mesorhizobium loti. Using RNA interference, we suppressed the expression of the phototropin and cryptochrome genes in L. japonicus hairy...
