SUMMARY :1. NodD rotein reco nition of different com ounds in root exudates
(flavonoids) contributes to host specificity.2. The nod genes encode functions that are involved in the regulation ofgene expression (e.g., NodD), producing the core Nod factor (NodABC)an ecora ng no ac ors sn,e.g., o , o .
3. Differences in Nod factor decoration (side chain modifications)
contribute to specificity.
z Specificity is a due to a combination of factors:1. Types of flavonoids made by host plants2. Nod D sensor proteins in the bacterial symbionts3. Types of Nod factors produced by the bacteria4. Amounts of Nod factors roduced b the bacteria5. Exopolysaccharide - for indeterminant nodules (role unclear)6. Plant hydrolases (e.g. chitinases that may degrade Nod factors)

Soil and Site Factors Influencing Mycorrhizas
1. Mycorrhizal Inoculum mycorrhizal fungi is present in most soils.
mycorrhizal fungi may be absent from soils where severe. o s ur ance soil disturbance has resulted in topsoil loss, or where host
plants are limited by adverse soil or site factors such as
salinit aridit waterlo in or climatic extremes
3. Soil Fertility High rates of P and N fertilizers suppress ectomycorrhiza
development in the field4. Adverse Soil Conditions Excessive NaCl in soil inhibit mycorrhizal formation and
restrict the activity of most mycorrhizal fungi, but some
ECM fungi can be highly sensitive to waterlogging ofsoils, while VAM fungi may be less sensitive
