Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: LjENOD40–1
• Gene Name: early nodulin-1 protein
• Genome:
• Species: Lotus japonicus

Functional Descriptions:

• Two ENOD40 genes of L. japonicus were specifically expressed in the nodule formation process, but they showed different expression patterns upon infection.
• Each ENOD40 gene demonstrates an individual specificity and regulation with regard to rhizobial infection.
• Although LjENOD40–2 expression failed to be enhanced in nodule primordia induced by Nod factors, LjENOD40–2 showed a high level of expression in nodule primordia induced by rhizobia and in nodules. The results indicate that LjENOD40–2 is not a pseudogene, and has a role in nodule formation.
• We confirm that LjENOD40–2 is not induced during 48 h of symbiotic signal perception and there is a significant difference between the expression of LjENOD40–1 and LjENOD40–2 at the early stage of nodulation.
