Polyphenol oxidase affects normal nodule development in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.)

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) may have multiple functions in tissues depending on its cellular or tissue localisation. Here we use PPO RNAi transformants of red clover (Trifolium pratense) to determine the role PPO plays in normal development of plants, and especially in N2-fixing nodules. In red clover,...
