Bioactive Cytokinins Are Selectively Secreted by Sinorhizobium meliloti Nodulating and Nonnodulating Strains

Bacteria present in the rhizosphere of plants often synthesize phytohormones, and these signals can consequently affect root system development. In legumes, plants adapt to nitrogen starvation by forming lateral roots as well as a new organ, the root nodule, following a symbiotic interaction with ba...
