Roles for Azorhizobial Nod Factors and Surface Polysaccharides in Intercellular Invasion and Nodule Penetration, Respectively
In the symbiotic interaction between Azorhizobium caulinodans and Sesbania rostrata root and stem-borne nodules are formed. The bacteria enter the host via intercellular spaces at lateral or adventitious root bases and form infection pockets in outer cortical layers. Infection threads guide the bact...
