NSP1-NSP2 heteropolymerization is important in nodulation signaling. M. truncatula nsp2-2 roots transformed with NSP2 (A) or NSP2ΔLHRI (B) and inoculated with S. meliloti. Roots harboring NSP2 formed wild-type-like nodules (A), whereas roots harboring NSP2ΔLHRI (encoding a protein that does not bind NSP1) did not develop nodules (B). Bars = 5 mm.
