Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Specific antibodies confirmed the donor endophyte in resulting nodules.
- Association Host blebs and encapsulation threads were associated with deformed root hairs.
- Observation The endophyte entered root hair cells and migrated toward cortical cells as a hypha.
- Mechanism Migration through primary nodule cortical cells induced a lateral root that became the true nodule.
- Observation Endophyte ultrastructure in the abnormal host resembled that in its normal host.
- Observation The endophyte formed branched septate hyphae and septate vesicles.
- Observation The endophyte was always encapsulated in polysaccharide material surrounded by a host membrane.
- Observation Abnormal host plants formed drastically fewer primary nodules.
- Observation Primary nodule appearance was delayed by 1 to 2 weeks.
- Observation Delayed nodules fixed nitrogen effectively.
- Observation Delayed nodules supported satisfactory plant growth in nitrogen-free medium.
