Legume-rhizobia symbiosis is a biological process which because of their crucial role in introduction of fixed nitrogen into both agricultural and natural systems has been extensively studied but the molecular mechanisms programmed in legumes such as perception of Nod factors, subsequent signal transduction and nodule organogenesis are still unknown, especially in common bean. In this study, responses of mitochondorial proteins of Phaseolus vulgaris L. root cells under early stages of interaction with Rhizobium etli was studied using shotgun proteomics technique in a time course manner. Three-day-old bean seedlings were infected by bacteria. At 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after inoculation, the plant roots were collected, mitochondoria was purified and proteins were extracted and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Out of 15 proteins identified, up-regulated proteins were related to energy and disease and defence; whereas down-regulated proteins were related to protein synthesis and protein destination. These results provide an evidence to decrease in metabolism and signalling mechanism in root during early stages of symbiosis.
