  2. Root nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_nodule

    Root nodule. A simplified diagram of the relation between the plant and the symbiotic bacteria (cyan) in the root nodules. Root nodules are found on the roots of plants, primarily legumes, that form a symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. [1] Under nitrogen -limiting conditions, capable plants form a symbiotic relationship with a host ...

  3. Nod factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nod_factor

    Nod factor. The structure of the major Nod factor produced by Sinorhizobium meliloti. Nod factors (nodulation factors or NF), are signaling molecules produced by soil bacteria known as rhizobia in response to flavonoid exudation from plants under nitrogen limited conditions. Nod factors initiate the establishment of a symbiotic relationship ...

  4. Actinorhizal plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinorhizal_plant

    Actinorhizal plants are distributed within three clades, [1] and are characterized by nitrogen fixation. [2] They are distributed globally, and are pioneer species in nitrogen-poor environments. Their symbiotic relationships with Frankia evolved independently over time, [3] and the symbiosis occurs in the root nodule infection site.

  5. Rhizobia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizobia

    The partner choice hypothesis proposes that the plant uses prenodulation signals from the rhizobia to decide whether to allow nodulation, and chooses only noncheating rhizobia. There is evidence for sanctions in soybean plants, which reduce rhizobium reproduction (perhaps by limiting oxygen supply) in nodules that fix less nitrogen. [26]

  6. Bradyrhizobium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bradyrhizobium

    Bradyrhizobium species are Gram-negative bacilli (rod-shaped) with a single subpolar or polar flagellum. They are common soil-dwelling micro-organisms that can form symbiotic relationships with leguminous plant species where they fix nitrogen in exchange for carbohydrates from the plant. Like other rhizobia, many members of this genus have the ...

  7. Endophyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endophyte

    Endophyte. Transmission electron microscope image of a cross section through a soybean (Glycine max) root nodule. The nitrogen fixing bacteria, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, infects the roots and establishes a symbiosis. This high magnification image shows part of a cell with single bacteroid (bacterium-like cell or modified bacterial cell) within ...

  8. Plant reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_reproduction

    Plant reproduction is the production of new offspring in plants, which can be accomplished by sexual or asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction produces offspring by the fusion of gametes, resulting in offspring genetically different from either parent. Asexual reproduction produces new individuals without the fusion of gametes, resulting in ...

  9. Epidermis (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermis_(botany)

    The epidermis (from the Greek ἐπιδερμίς, meaning "over-skin") is a single layer of cells that covers the leaves, flowers, roots and stems of plants. It forms a boundary between the plant and the external environment. The epidermis serves several functions: it protects against water loss, regulates gas exchange, secretes metabolic ...
