Nod Factor-Induced Expression of Leghemoglobin to Study the Mechanism of NH4NO3 Inhibition on Root Hair Deformation

Nod factors secreted by Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae induce root hair deformation, the formation of nodule primordia, and the expression of early nodulin genes in Vicia sativa (vetch). Root hair deformation is induced within 3 h in a small, susceptible zone (±2 mm) of the root. NH4NO3, known t...
