Rhizobia can establish a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with plants of the #Leguminosae$ family. They elicit on their host plant the formation of new organs, called nodules, which develop on the roots. A few aquatic legumes, however, can form nodules on their stem at dormant root primordia. The stem-nodulating legumes described so far are all members of the genera #Aeschynomene$, #Sesbania$, #Neptunia$, and #Discolobium$. Their rhizobial symbionts belong to four genera already described : #Rhizobium$, #Bradyrhizobium$, #Sinorhizobium$, and #Azorhizobium$. This review summarizes our current knowledge on most aspects of stem nodulation in legumes, the infection process and nodule development, the characterization and unusual features of the associ...
