Nodule-specific modulation of glutamine synthetase in transgenic medicago truncatula leads to inverse alterations in asparagine synthetase expression

Transgenic Medicago truncatula plants were produced harboring chimeric gene constructs of the glutamine synthetase (GS) cDNA clones (MtGS1a or MtGS1b) fused in sense or antisense orientation to the nodule-specific leghemoglobin promoter Mtlb1. A series of transgenic plants were obtained showing a 2-...
