General Information

General Information	Comment	Organism
malfunction	MtDGD1-RNA interference transgenic plants exhibit significant decreases in nodule number, symbiotic nitrogen fixation activity, and digalactosyldiacylglycerol abundance in the nodules, as well as abnormal nodule and symbiosome development	Medicago truncatula
physiological function	the enzyme plays an essential role in nodule development and nitrogen fixation. It contributes to effective nodule organogenesis and nitrogen fixation by affecting the synthesis and content of digalactosyldiacylglycerol during symbiosis	Medicago truncatula
