| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In an attempt to accumulate the information on the interaction between rhizobium and legume plants medicated by type III secretion system (T3SS) effectors, we conducted molecular genetic analyses using a model legume Lotus japonicus and Bradyrhizobium elkanii. As the results of infection analysis and Tn5 mutant screening, we identified that two types of immune responses, block of infection and prevention of nodule maturation, induced by different effectors. Based on the QTL analysis using RILs and GWAS using wild accessions of L. japonicus, we detected multiple candidate loci related to the responses caused by T3SS effectors.
