A nonsymbiotic root hair tip growth phenotype on NORK-mutated legumes: implications for nodulation-factor-induced signaling and formation of a multifacteted root hair pocket for bacteria, Plant Cell 16, 933-944 (2004). Shows that root-hair deformation in legumes that are mutated in Mt DMI2 (or orthologous genes) might be altered because of a touch response. An alternative (branched) pathway for nodulation signalling is proposed in which early nodulation genes are on the pathway of gene induction but not root-hair deformation.
