Comparison of growth and nodulation between wild type and crinkle
| Parameters | Wild Type | crinkle |
|---|---|---|
| Root length (in mm) | 95 ± 5.55 | 79 ± 13.88 |
| Shoot length (in mm) | 65 ± 15.65 | 22 ± 4.18 |
| No. of pink nodules | 39 ± 3.57 | 4 ± 0.71 |
| No. of white nodules | 0 | 38 ± 5.07 |
Plants were grown in a pillow system and harvested 2 months after infection with M. loti MAFF 303099. Five plants were measured per sample, and means and sds are presented. White and pink nodules in crinkle mutants correspond to type I and type II nodules, respectively.
