Auxins are postulated to be one of the pivotal factors in nodulation. However, their transporters in , the model species for the study of the development of determinate-type root nodules, have been scarcely described so far, and thus their role in nodulation has remained unknown. Our research is the first focusing on polar auxin transporters in . We analyzed and compared expression of in 20 days post rhizobial inoculation (dpi) and 54 dpi root nodules of by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) along with the histochemical β-glucuronidase () reporter gene assay in transgenic hairy roots. The results indicate that are essential during root nodule development since they are predominantly expressed in the primordia and young, developing nodules. However, along with differentiation, expression levels of several decreased and occurred particularly in the nodule vascular bundles, especially in connection with the root's stele. Moreover, our study demonstrated the importance of both polar auxin transport and auxin intracellular homeostasis during root nodule development and differentiation.

Pilomatrixoma, also called Malherbe's calcifying epithelioma or pilomatrixoma, is a benign adnexal tumor that originates from keratinocytes (cells of the hair matrix, the internal sheath of the hair root or the cortex) and constitutes the second most prevalent skin neoplasm in children. These lesions are typically slow-growing, firm, nodules located on the head, neck, trunk, and extremities (in decreasing order of frequency). Due to the rarity, combined with their varied clinical presentations, pilomatrixomas are often misdiagnosed.

Rhizobia and legumes form a symbiotic relationship resulting in the formation of root structures known as nodules, where bacteria fix nitrogen. Legumes release flavonoids that are detected by the rhizobial nodulation (Nod) protein NodD, initiating the transcriptional activation of nod genes and subsequent synthesis of Nod Factors (NFs). NFs then induce various legume responses essential for this symbiosis.

Soil salinity is a major global challenge affecting agricultural productivity and food security. This study explores innovative strategies to improve salt tolerance in soybean (), a crucial crop in the global food supply. This study investigates the synergistic effects of S-nitroso glutathione (GSNO) and silicon on enhancing salt tolerance in soybean ().

It is well known that individual pea ( L.) cultivars differ in their symbiotic responsivity. This trait is typically manifested with an increase in seed weights, due to inoculation with rhizobial bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Background/objectives: The balanced regulation of innate immunity plays essential roles in rhizobial infection and the establishment and maintenance of symbiosis. The evolutionarily conserved cell death suppressor Bax inhibitor-1 plays dual roles in nodule symbiosis, providing a valuable clue in balancing immunity and symbiosis, while it remains largely unexplored in the legume .
Methods/results: In the present report, the gene family of was identified and characterized.
