Figure 1

Generalized diagram of split root inoculation in M. truncatula. A plant with two main roots is created via our protocols and each root is placed in Perlite in a separate pot. One root is inoculated first (Root A) and the second root (Root B) is inoculated at a later time point. The plants continue to grow for 21 days after the second inoculation, at which point they are removed from the Perlite system and nodules on each root are counted.
