Legumes establish symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable forms within root nodules, a process regulated by complex signalling, gene expression, and energy balance. In this Virtual Issue, research articles and reviews that discuss the latest plant-oriented advances in biological nitrogen fixation were collected to provide an updated view of the biochemical and molecular aspects of different steps of the nodulation process.

Abstract

Legumes establish symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria to convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable forms within root nodules, a process regulated by complex signalling, gene expression, and energy balance. In this Virtual Issue, research articles and reviews that discuss the latest plant-oriented advances in biological nitrogen fixation were collected to provide an updated view of the biochemical and molecular aspects of different steps of the nodulation process.
