Abstract

Abstract Root hairs of soybeans (Glycine max), target cells for infection by Rhizobium japonicum accumulate iron more than 10-fold, cobalt more than 8-fold and calcium more than 7-fold compared to the other parts of the root system. In root hairs of wheat (Triticum aestivum) a much smaller accumulation of these elements was found. The symbiont of Glycine max, Rhizobium japonicum, is known to have a high requirement for iron, cobalt and calcium.
