Search and study of plant receptors for signaling molecules (Nod factors, chitooligosaccharides, Myc factors) secreted by nodule bacteria and fungi of arbuscular mycorrhiza
To study the effect of genes encoding receptors for Nod factors and controlling the initiation of the development of nitrogen-fixing symbioses on non-leguminous plants in order to assess the possibility of interaction of such plants with nitrogen-fixing b
To study the role of hormones in the control of plant-microbial relationships and to clarify how regulators of hormonal pathways interact with transcription factors activated by signaling molecules
