DEF

A plant that lives (in symbiosis) with another dissimilar organism (another plant species, fungus, microorganism, etc.) in any of various mutually beneficial relationships.

CONT

Present research showed that plants can produce certain types of chemicals and secrete the chemicals from various tissues to form a "biochemical band." That band has a complex effect on the symbiotic plants. When two or more plants of various species grow together, their interaction may be positive or negative to each other.

CONT

Haricot (Phaseolus vulgaris), espèce représentative de la famille des légumineuses, et donc capable de former des associations symbiotiques avec les bactéries fixatrices d'azote, ainsi qu'avec des champignons endomycorhiziens [...] Les résultats obtenus sur ce modèle de légumineuse à graines seront vérifiés [...] dans la perspective à plus long terme de centrer notre approche sur cette légumineuse modèle de la génomique des plantes symbiotiques.
