Researchers Study How Medicago truncatula Adapts to High Salinity (6106148247)
Description:
Description: Plant Genome Research Program (PGRP) researchers study how Medicago truncatula, a small legume, and associated soil bacteria co-adapt to high salinity conditions. The PGRP, which was established in 1998 as part of the coordinated National Plant Genome Initiative by the Interagency Working Group on Plant Genomes of the National Science and Technology Council, works to advance the understanding of the structure and function of genomes of plants of economic importance.
