Popis: Summary To overcome nitrogen deficiencies in the soil, legumes enter symbioses with rhizobial bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium. Rhizobia are accommodated as endosymbionts within lateral root organs called nodules that initiate from the inner layers of Medicago truncatula roots in response to rhizobial perception. In contrast, lateral roots emerge from predefined founder cells as an adaptive response to environmental stimuli, including water and nutrient availability. CYTOKININ RESPONSE 1 (CRE1)-mediated signaling in the pericycle and in the cortex is necessary and sufficient for nodulation, whereas cytokinin is antagonistic to lateral root development, with cre1 showing increased lateral root emergence and decreased nodulation. To better understand the relatedness between nodule and lateral root development, we undertook a comparative analysis of these two root developmental programs. Here, we demonstrate that despite differential induction, lateral roots and nodules share overlapping developmental programs, with mutants in LOB-DOMAIN PROTEIN 16 (LBD16) showing equivalent defects in nodule and lateral root initiation. The cytokinin-inducible transcription factor NODULE INCEPTION (NIN) allows induction of this program during nodulation through activation of LBD16 that promotes auxin biosynthesis via transcriptional induction of STYLISH (STY) and YUCCAs (YUC). We conclude that cytokinin facilitates local auxin accumulation through NIN promotion of LBD16, which activates a nodule developmental program overlapping with that induced during lateral root initiation.
Graphical Abstract
Highlights • Lateral roots and nodules show extensive overlap in organogenesis and transcription • Nodule and lateral root initiation converges at an auxin maximum and LBD16 • Cytokinin promotes auxin biosynthesis via NIN and LBD16 during nodule initiation
To overcome growth-limiting nitrogen deficiency in soils, legumes host nitrogen-fixing bacteria in symbiotic root nodules. Schiessl et al. show that despite different environmental stimuli and organ function, nodule and lateral root initiation converges on a local accumulation of the plant hormone auxin and a set of auxin-responsive regulators.
