Abstract excerpt
Transcription of the nodulation genes nodABC in Rhizobium meliloti requires a plant flavonoid signal and nodD, a family of bacterial regulatory genes (nodD1, nodD2, and nodD3). Results from this study show that all previously identified nod gene inducers released by alfalfa seeds and roots induced nodABC-lacZ transcription in R. meliloti containing extra copies of nodD1, but only 4,4'-dihydroxy-2'-methoxychalcone...
