Nodulation phenotype of AsE246-RNAi hair root. A, The empty vector control hair root, inoculated with M. huakuii 7653R and grown in the absence of nitrogen. The photographs were taken 4 weeks after inoculation. B, AsE246 RNAi hair root inoculated with M. huakuii 7653R formed fewer root nodules compared with control, and the nodules are also white colored. C, Close-up of boxed area in A. The nodules are indicated by white arrows. D, Close-up of boxed area in B. The nodules are indicated by white arrows. E, Numbers of nodules per root. There are fewer nodules in RNAi root (n = 47) compared with the empty control (n = 35). F, The nitrogenase activity of the AsE246-RNAi nodule is lower than that of the control nodule. Different letters above bars indicate significant differences (P < 0.05, Student’s t test) between pairwise comparisons. G, Lipid PC, PE, PI, and DGDG contents of transgenic nodule. Different letters above bars indicate significant differences (P < 0.05, Student’s t test) between pairwise comparisons. Bar = 1 cm. [See online article for color version of this figure.]
