Host plant peptides elicit a transcriptional response to control the Sinorhizobium meliloti cell cycle during symbiosis
The α-proteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti establishes a chronic intracellular infection during the symbiosis with its legume hosts. Within specialized host cells, S. meliloti differentiates into highly polyploid, enlarged nitrogen-fixing bacteroids. This differentiation is driven by host cells th...
