- 1. Rhizobium is a genus of Gram-negative soil bacteria that fix nitrogen. Rhizobium species form an endosymbiotic nitrogen-fixing association with roots of (primarily) legumes and other flowering plants.
- 2. Generally, the term "deciduous" means "the dropping of a part that is no longer needed or useful" and the "falling away after its purpose is finished". In plants, it is the result of natural processes.
- 3. An inverted repeat (or IR) is a single stranded sequence of nucleotides followed downstream by its reverse complement. The intervening sequence of nucleotides between the initial sequence and the reverse complement can be any length including zero. For example, 5'---TTACGnnnnnnCGTAA---3' is an inverted repeat sequence.

About This Project
The Inverted Sequence (IR) of some plants is one of well-known kind of special sequences. But, until now, the exact mechanism of how the IR sequence is made hasn't discovered yet. Most plants have an IR regions, but legumes do not have an IR regions, and among them, deciduous legumes have an IR zone. Thus, the purpose of our study is to elucidate the structure and mechanism of the IR region. Additionally, our team is going to figure out the relationship of it and plants' deciduousness.
