(1) Root nodule age-class transition, seasonal proportion of biomass contribution of the three age-classes of active nodules and annual nodule production were estimated in plantation stands of Alnus ...

Peas and other legumes develop spherical or cylindrical structures -- called nodules -- in their roots to establish a mutually beneficial relationship with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen ...

The developmental regulators that confer the identity of N-fixing root nodules belong to a transcription factor family (LSH) more commonly associated with defining the shapes of stems, flowers and ...
