Maintaining osmotic balance in legume nodules
Pinitol (3-O-methyl-D-chiro-inositol) is shown to be transported passively across the plant-derived symbiosome membrane in Lotus japonicus by the energy-independent polyol transporter LjPLT11. Accumulation of pinitol is crucial to maintenance of osmotic balance in nodules. RNAi lines reduced in LjPL...
