Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on using new retrotransposon insertions in a plant line to explore genetic factors involved in the symbiotic relationship between the plant and a specific nitrogen-fixing bacteria, IRBG74.
- Over 200,000 seedlings were screened to identify mutants with impaired nodulation, leading to the discovery of 110 mutants that showed significant defects after inoculation.
- The sequencing of mutants revealed disruptions in 92 genes, including one involved in autophagy, enhancing understanding of the genetic basis of nodulation and highlighting the potential for forward genetics in plant research.*
