  abstract = {{R}oot endosymbioses vitally contribute to plant nutrition and fitness worldwide. {N}itrogen-fixing root nodulation, confined to four plant orders, encompasses two distinct types of associations, the interaction of legumes ({F}abales) with rhizobia bacteria and actinorhizal symbioses, where the bacterial symbionts are actinomycetes of the genus {F}rankia. {A}lthough several genetic components of the host-symbiont interaction have been identified in legumes, the genetic basis of actinorhiza formation is unknown. {H}ere, we show that the receptor-like kinase gene {S}ym{RK}, which is required for nodulation in legumes, is also necessary for actinorhiza formation in the tree {C}asuarina glauca. {T}his indicates that both types of nodulation symbiosis share genetic components. {L}ike several other legume genes involved in the interaction with rhizobia, {S}ym{RK} is also required for the interaction with arbuscular mycorrhiza ({AM}) fungi. {W}e show that {S}ym{RK} is involved in {AM} formation in {C}. glauca as well and can restore both nodulation and {AM} symbioses in a {L}otus japonicus symrk mutant. {T}aken together, our results demonstrate that {S}ym{RK} functions as a vital component of the genetic basis for both plant-fungal and plant-bacterial endosymbioses and is conserved between legumes and actinorhiza-forming {F}agales.},
