Rhizobial exopolysaccharides (EPS) may provide stabilization of membranes against external factors, as well as improved surface adhesion, but their role in interaction with legume and non-legume plants is still far from understanding. In this work, the transcriptional regulator RosR of Rhizobium ruizarguesonis, which regulates the synthesis of EPS, was overproduced in a pHC60 plasmid and expressed in the RCAM 1026 strain. This resulted in an improved production of EPS by this recombinant strain.

Article Synopsis
  • Chitooligosaccharides (COs) are biodegradable and non-toxic, making them potential agents for plant protection, but their exact mechanisms of action are still unclear.
  • This study used RNA sequencing to investigate the transcriptional changes in pea roots after treatment with CO8-DA, identifying 886 differentially expressed genes that suggest the involvement of calcium signaling and MAPK pathways in the plant's response.
  • The research also highlights specific MAPKKKs, PsMAPKKK5 and PsMAPKKK20, which appear to work together in the signaling pathway activated by CO8-DA and are essential for improving the plant's resistance to pathogenic fungi.

Article Synopsis
  • Regulation of plant hormonal status is crucial for nodule formation in legumes, but the genetic and hormonal networks involved in nodule differentiation are not well understood.
  • Researchers explored the effects of cytokinin on nodule development using pea mutants with impaired rhizobial infection, finding that cytokinin increased nodule size and stimulated bacterial release.
  • A transcriptome analysis identified key regulatory factors, including CCS52, EFD, SYMREM, and others, which play roles in nodule differentiation, confirmed through real-time PCR testing after cytokinin treatment.
