Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Actinorhizal tree can preferentially acquire a nitrogen source by root nodule symbiosis. Therefore, identification of signal substances related to symbiosis with Alnus sieboldinana and Frankia and establishment of hydroponic cultivation method were carried out. 1. We investigated the influence of cyclic diarylheptanoids of Alnus sieboldiana on Frankia root nodule formation and clarified that these compounds markedly increase the number of nodules and are actinorhizal symbiotic signal substances. The compond was also confirmed by the LC-MS analysis in the roo extractst. 2. We have established a hydroponic cultivation that enables root growth during growth and observation of root nodule formation. However, compared to the soil cultivation, growth of plants and formation of nodules were not good. We concluded that the further examination of cultivation conditions is necessary.
