We have initiated studies on the molecular biology and genetics of white sweetclover (Melilotus alba Desr.) and its responses to inoculation with the nitrogen-fixing symbiont Sinorhizobium meliloti. Early nodulin genes such as ENOD40 serve as markers for the transition from root to nodule development even before visible stages of nodule formation are evident. Using Northern blot analysis, we found that the ENOD40 gene was expressed within 6 h after inoculation with two different strains of S. meliloti, one of which overproduces symbiotic Nod factors. Inoculation with this strain resulted in an additional increase in ENOD40 gene expression over a typical wild-type S. meliloti strain. Moreover, the increase in mRNA brought about by the Nod-factor-overproducing strain 24 h after inoculation was correlated with lateral root formation by using whole-mount in situ hybridization to localize ENOD40 transcripts in lateral root meristems and by counting lateral root initiation sites. Cortical cell divisions were not detected. We also found that nodulation occurred more rapidly on white sweetclover in response to the Nod-factor-overproducing strain, but ultimately there was no difference in nodulation efficiency in terms of nodule number or the number of roots nodulated by the two strains. Also, the two strains could effectively co-colonize the host when inoculated together, although a few host cells were occupied by both strains.Key words: ENOD40, Nod factor, Melilotus, Sinorhizobium, symbiosis.
