Abstract
The nodulation of soya (Glycine max) roots could be severely inhibited by treating the symbiotic bacteria (Bradyrhizobium japonicum) with no dule-derived peribacteroid space fractions. Riboflavin, a prominent pe ribacteroid space component, could mimic this effect. Daidzein-stimula ted beta-galactosidase expression, associated with a plasmid (pRJ458) bearing a B. japonicum nodD2D1YABC'-'lacZ construct in a B. japonicum background, was repressed in the presence of both peribacteroid space fractions and riboflavin.
