Nod Factors Alter the Microtubule Cytoskeleton in Medicago truncatula Root Hairs to Allow Root Hair Reorientation

The microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton is an important part of the tip-growth machinery in legume root hairs. Here we report the effect of Nod factor (NF) on MTs in root hairs of Medicago truncatula. In tip-growing hairs, the ones that typically curl around rhizobia, NF caused a subtle shortening of the...
