Abstract excerpt
Nodule-specific (nodulin) genes are thought to play crucial roles during establishment of the nitrogen-fixing symbiosis between legume plants and Rhizobium bacteria. On the basis of a gene expression database for early stages of the nodulation process of Lotus japonicus, previously constructed by a cDNA macroarray analysis, we identified a novel nodulin gene, LjnsRING, which encodes a protein with a typical...
