“…The most intensively studied cases of such reciprocal signaling are provided by the interaction of the bacterial pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens with its hosts in crown gall disease (for review, see Long and Staskawicz 1993), and by the interaction of Rhizobium (a symbiont) with legumes in nodulation (see D4nari4 and Cullimore 1993;Long and Staskawicz 1993). Identification of the U. maydis fuz7 gene is a first step in unravelling the interactions between this fungus and its host.…”

“…Flavonoids secreted by the roots of the host plant trigger the expression of the nodulation (nod) genes of Rhizobium, resulting in the synthesis of specific lipooligosaccharides named Nod factors (Fisher and Long, 1992;Spaink, 1992;Dénarié and Cullimore, 1993).…”

“…At present, the structure of Nod factors produced by severa1 Rhizobium species has been determined (Dénarié and Cullimore, 1993), showing that a11 Nod factors are molecules consisting of a /3-1,4-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine backbone varying in length between three and five sugar units. The nonreducing terminal sugar moiety is substituted on the C-2 position with a fatty acid group, the structure of which is variable.…”

“…This step is a determinant of host plant specificity in some Rhizobium-host plant combinations (Horvath et al, 1987; Spaink et al, 1987). Transcription of structural nod genes is under the control of NodD and results in production and secretion of specific lipochitin oligosaccharides (Nod factors), which act as host plant-specific inducers of nodule morphogenesis (reviewed by Dénarié and Cullimore, 1993;Spaink et al, 1993). Most probably, Nod factors constitute the primary determinants of host-plant specificity of nodulation.…”
