豆科植物固氮共生相关的转录调控网络

Legumes can interact with rhizobium in the soil to form root nodules, reducing nitrogen in the air to ammonia that can be used directly by the plants. There are many specific transcription factors that regulate the nodule formation process. This article summarizes a series of transcription factors that have been reported to play important roles in the nitrogen fixation symbiosis process, preliminarily describes the regulatory network formed by these transcription factors and prospects the identification and function of new transcription factors involved in the symbiosis of nitrogen fixation.
