Micro-morphology of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) nodules undergoing senescence

Abstract: We studied morphological changes over time by nodules formed on the root system of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Two cultivars, Bayomex and Cacahuate 72 with growth habit Type I and the Rhizobium etli strain CE-3 were used. The results showed the collapse of the infected zone, degradation of the cell walls and membranes, changes in the number and distribution of the starch granules, appearance of protein granules, and disintegration of the central tissue of the nodule with ageing. Additionally, we d… Show more

“…Com o início do enchimento de vagens no feijoeiro, os nódulos passam por uma série de alterações estruturais e fisiológicas, que resultam na sua senescência e perda da capacidade de fixar N 2 durante um estádio de alta demanda metabólica para a formação dos grãos (Fernández-Luqueño et al, 2008), que assim não será suprida por meio da simbiose. Nessas situações, e quando o suprimento de N no solo não é suficiente, a demanda de N do cultivo pode ser satisfeita com o fertilizante nitrogenado aplicado em cobertura (Franco et al, 1979;Soratto et al, 2011).…”

“…Longitudinal 4-µm-or 8-10-µm-thick sections (depending on the age of the ovaries) were made with an American Optics Spencer 820 Rotary Microtome. The sections were placed on microscopic slides, dried at 60 • C for at least 1 h, and then stained with Safranin O-Fast Green (Fernandez-Luqueno et al, 2008). The samples were analyzed under light and dark field illumination with a Nikon Eclipse 55i microscope.…”

“…The high levels of CO 2 produced towards the end of the experiments could be related to rapid root growth and the beginning of root decomposition. For example, common bean plants at 49 days after sowing (flowering and nodule senescence begins) showed a decrease in the number of nodules, and their nodule cell walls slowly became thinner and degraded [14] thereby improving the environment for the growth of microorganisms and increasing the production of CO 2 towards the end of the experiments.…”
