Nodule parenchyma-specific expression of the sesbania rostrata early nodulin gene SrEnod2 is mediated by its 3' untranslated region
The early nodulin Enod2 gene encodes a putative hydroxyproline-rich cell wall protein and is expressed exclusively in the nodule parenchyma cell layer. The latter finding suggests that the Enod2 protein may contribute to the special morphological features of the nodule parenchyma and to the creation of an oxygen diffusion barrier. The Enod2 gene of the stem-nodulating legume Sesbania rostrata (...
متن کاملSrchi13, a novel early nodulin from Sesbania rostrata, is related to acidic class III chitinases.
On the tropical legume Sesbania rostrata, stem-borne nodules develop after inoculation of adventitious root primordia with the microsymbiont Azorhizobium caulinodans. A cDNA clone, Srchi13, with homology to acidic class III chitinase genes, corresponds to an early nodulin gene with transiently induced expression during nodule ontogeny. Srchi13 transcripts accumulated strongly 2 days after inocu...
متن کاملEthylene-mediated phenotypic plasticity in root nodule development on Sesbania rostrata.
Leguminous plants in symbiosis with rhizobia form either indeterminate nodules with a persistent meristem or determinate nodules with a transient meristematic region. Sesbania rostrata was thought to possess determinate stem and root nodules. However, the nature of nodule development is hybrid, and the early stages resemble those of indeterminate nodules. Here we show that, depending on the env...
متن کاملNodule-enhanced protease inhibitor gene: emerging patterns of gene expression in nodule development on Sesbania rostrata.
A novel marker for the early stages of nodulation of Sesbania rostrata was found to encode a putative member of the Kunitz family of protease inhibitors (SrPI1). Its expression was enhanced during nodulation, and was not up-regulated by wounding or upon infection with wide host-range pathogens. In situ expression patterns resembled those previously described for functions that may be implicated...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of the Sesbania rostrata leghemoglobin glb3 gene 5'-upstream region in transgenic Lotus corniculatus and Nicotiana tabacum plants.
Expression of the Sesbania rostrata leghemoglobin glb3 gene was analyzed in transgenic Lotus corniculatus and tobacco plants harboring chimeric glb3-uidA (gus) gene fusions to identify cis-acting elements involved in nodule-specific gene expression and general transcriptional control. A 1.9-kilobase fragment of the glb3 5'-upstream region was found to direct a high level of nodule-specific beta...
