Small peptides are known to serve as signals in a variety of physiological processes in animals but as yet are relatively unknown in plants. Van de Sande et al. (p. 370) have identified an oligopeptide encoded by one of the plant genes in legumes that responds to nodulation. Investigation of the related gene in tobacco suggests that the oligopeptide alters responses to phytohormones.
