[Effect of Rhizobium leguminosarum 252 agglutinins on the activity of some plant cell enzymes].
The incubation of pea seedling roots with the surface agglutinins R1 and R2 of Rhizobium leguminosarum 252 brought about an increase in the activity of proteases, beta-glucosidase, and, especially, succinate dehydrogenase in the roots. The data presented show that rhizobial agglutinins play an important part in the formation and functioning of legume-rhizobial associations.
