title: [Ultrastructure of bacteroid-containing tissue of Pisum sativum L. peas having various regulatory mechanisms of nodulation].
abstract: The infected root nodule cells of Pisum sativum cvs. Torsdag, Rondo and its supernodulating mutant nod3 have been investigated by transmission electron microscopy and morphometrically. Torsdag and nod3 developed effective nodules, when grown with or without nitrates in the growth medium. The nodules developed by Rondo were ineffective in the presence of nitrates, and otherwise effective. An obvious similarity in the fine structure of bacteroid tissue of root nodules has been observed in Torgsdag (Nod5) and the supernodulating mutant nod3, both forms being nitrate-tolerant, but nodulation being controlled by different genetic systems. The statistical processing results showed significant differences in the respective morphometric parameters of nodule cells between the plants grown according to either scheme: with and without nitrates. Combined nitrogen is likely to affect the ratio of symbionts in the infected nodule cells of cultivars with nitrate-tolerant nodulation.
