Photorespiratory Metabolism and Nodule Function: Behavior of Lotus japonicus Mutants Deficient in Plastid Glutamine Synthetase
Two photorespiratory mutants of Lotus japonicus deficient in plastid glutamine synthetase (GS2) were examined for their capacity to establish symbiotic association with Mesorhizobium loti bacteria.Biosynthetic glutamine synthetase (GS) activity was reduced cga 200 to cga 510 adapter by around 40% in crude nodule extracts from mutant plants as compa
