Nodule-like structure formation in rice and Medicago is independent of the Common Symbiotic Pathway. (A,C) Show that no significant differences were observed in NLS frequency in rice and Medicago CSP mutants and wild type plants at 7 and 14 dpt. Data represents average of at least three experimental replications (n = 10–15). (B) Show that the average number of NLS formed per plant in wild type rice and its symbiotic mutants was similar at both 7 and 14 dpt. Data represents average of at least three experimental replications (n = 10–15). (D) At 7 dpt, the average number of NLS formed in wildtype Medicago and its symbiotic mutants were similar. At 14 dpt, average NLS number in dmi1 and dmi2 mutants were similar to wild type, but dmi3 formed significantly higher number of NLS than wild type. Asterisk denotes significant difference between dmi3 and the other lines (one-way ANOVA, F3,213= 4.09, α = 0.05, P = 0.008; Dunnet’s Post hoc, wild type vs. dmi3 P = 0.035). Data represents the average of at least three experimental replications (n = 10–15) ± SE.
