Abstract excerpt
Bacteroid inorganic phosphorus (Pi) metabolism in the Rhizobium-legume symbiosis differs between indeterminate and determinate legume nodules. In contrast to alfalfa bacteroids, bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) bacteroids exhibit high levels of alkaline phosphatase (AP), the native reporter enzyme for the bacterial Pi stress response. 14C and 32Pi whole plant labelling techniques were used in conjunction with diagnostic...
