Identification and Characterization of NodulationSignaling Pathway 2, a Gene of Medicago truncatula Involved in Nod Factor Signaling1

Bacterially derived Nod factor is critical in the establishment of the legume/rhizobia symbiosis. Understanding the mechanisms of Nod factor perception and signal transduction in the plant will greatly advance our understanding of this complex interaction. Here, we describe the identification of a new locus, nodulation-signaling pathway 2 (NSP2), of Medicago truncatula that is involved in Nod factor signaling. Mutants at this locus are blocked for Nod ...
