Rapid Colorimetric Quantification of Lipo-chitooligosaccharides from Mesorhizobium loti and Sinorhizobium meliloti
Nod factors are lipids with a chitinlike headgroup produced by gram-negative Rhizobium bacteria. These lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCOs) are essential signaling molecules for accomplishing symbiosis between the bacteria and roots of legume plants. Despite their important role in the Rhizobium-legume...
