Legumes form a symbiotic interaction with bacteria of the Rhizobiaceae family to produce nitrogen-fixing root nodules under nitrogen-limiting conditions. We examined the importance of glutathione (GSH) and homoglutathione (hGSH) during the nitrogen fixation process. Spatial patterns of the expression of the genes involved in the biosynthesis of...

Under nitrogen-limiting conditions, legumes are able to form a symbiotic interaction with bacteria of the Rhizobiaceae family to produce root nodules. These new root organs satisfy plant nitrogen needs by reducing atmospheric nitrogen to ammonium. However, the senescence of these organs disturbs the assimilation of nitrogen. In this study, we...
