Abstract
Wild-type soybean (Glycine max [L] Merr. cv Bragg) and a nitrate-tolerant supernodulating mutant (nts382) were grown in split root systems to investigate the involvement of the autoregulation response and the effect of timing of inoculation on nodule suppression. In Bragg, nodulation of the root portion receiving the delayed inoculation was suppressed nearly 100% by a 7-day prior inoculation of the other root portion with Bradyrhizobium japonicum strain USDA 110. Significant suppression was also observed after a 24-hour delay in inoculation. Mutant nts382 in the presence of a low nitrate level (0.5 millimolar) showed little, if any, systemic suppression. Root fresh weights of individual root portions were similar for both wild type and nts382 mutant. When nts382 was grown in the absence of nitrate, a 7-day delay in inoculation resulted in only 30% suppression of nodulation and a significant difference in root fresh weight between the two sides, with the delayed inoculated side always being smaller. Nodulation tests on split roots of nts382, nts1116, and wild-type cultivars Bragg, Williams 82, and Clark demonstrated a difference in their systemic suppression ability. These observations indicate that (a) autoregulation deficiencies in mutant nts382 result in a reduction of systemic suppression of nodulation, (b) some suppression is detectable after 24 hours with a delayed inoculation, (c) the presence of low nitrate affects the degree of suppression and the root growth, and (d) soybean genotypes differ in their ability to express this systemic suppression.
