Microbial ACC-Deaminase: Prospects and Applications for Inducing Salt Tolerance in Plants (2010, background): “It has been observed that directly or indirectly, a number of processes are regulated by ethylene at various phases of the nodulation (Guinel and Geil, 2002).”
Microbiology is the basis of sustainable agriculture: an opinion (2011, background): “The second strategy is represented by the bacterial synthesis of 1-aminocyclopropane-1carboxylate (ACC) deaminase catalysing the metabolism of ACC, the precursor of plant ethylene which downregulates different types of symbiotic interactions (Guinel & Geil, 2002; Belimov et al., 2009).”
Molecular analysis of legume nodule development and autoregulation. (2010, background): “Other factors that reduce nodule numbers include ethylene and nitrate (Carroll et al. 1985a,b; Guinel and Geil 2002; Ferguson and Mathesius 2003; Ferguson et al. 2005b; Gresshoff et al. 2009; Lohar et al. 2009).”
Promotion of plant growth by ACC deaminase-producing soil bacteria (2007, background): “Ethylene is an inhibitor of rhizobial nodulation of legumes, and since the infection of plant roots by Rhizobia causes plants to locally produce ethylene, rhizobial infection may be viewed as a self-limiting process (Guinel and Geil 2002; Ma et al. 2003a).”
