^a As determined by using the Petri dish bioassay [89]. Values are mean of five independent replicates.
^b Percentage of germination of O. crenata seeds that were at 0–3 mm from host root
^c Percentage of O. crenata germinated seeds that attach on M. truncatula roots.
^d Number of resulting nodules counted 25 days after inoculation.
* indicates that differences are statistically significant (LSD, P < 0.05)
