Nodule-specific Cu+-chaperone NCC1 is required for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula root nodules

This study identifies MtNCC1 as a nodule-specific Cu+-chaperone essential for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula, showing reduced nitrogenase and copper-dependent cytochrome c oxidase activity in mutants.

Medicago truncatula Yellow Stripe-Like7 encodes a peptide transporter required for symbiotic nitrogen fixation

The paper identifies MtYSL7 as a peptide transporter essential for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula, with evidence of its role in transition metal homeostasis.

Medicago truncatula Yellow Stripe1-Like3 gene is involved in symbiotic nitrogen fixation

This study shows that the Medicago truncatula YSL3 gene is essential for nitrogen fixation in root nodules by facilitating iron and zinc transport.

Nicotianamine synthase 2 is required for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula nodules

This study shows that MtNAS2 is essential for iron delivery in Medicago truncatula nodules, supporting symbiotic nitrogen fixation.

Medicago truncatula Ferroportin2 mediates iron import into nodule symbiosomes

This study shows that MtFPN2 in Medicago truncatula is essential for iron delivery to symbiosomes, supporting nitrogen fixation, but not for vascular iron transport.

MtMOT1.2 is responsible for molybdate supply to Medicago truncatula nodules

The paper identifies MtMOT1.2 as a molybdate transporter essential for delivering molybdate to Medicago truncatula nodules for nitrogen fixation.

Medicago truncatula copper transporter1 (MtCOPT1) delivers copper for symbiotic nitrogen fixation

The paper identifies MtCOPT1 as a copper transporter essential for symbiotic nitrogen fixation in Medicago truncatula, showing its role in copper delivery to nodules and its impact on nitrogenase activity and biomass.

Medicago truncatula MOT1.3 is a plasma membrane molybdenum transporter required for nitrogenase activity in root nodules

The paper identifies MtMOT1.3 as a molybdate transporter in Medicago truncatula root nodules essential for nitrogenase activity and symbiotic nitrogen fixation.

Medicago truncatula Zinc-Iron Permease6 provides zinc to rhizobia-infected nodule cells

This study identifies MtZIP6 as a zinc transporter critical for zinc delivery to rhizobia-infected nodule cells, essential for nitrogen fixation when mineral nitrogen is unavailable.
