Cross-reactive antigens and lectin as determinants of symbiotic specificity in the Rhizobium-clover association.
Cross-reactive antigens of clover roots and Rhizobium trifolii were detected on their cell surfaces by tube agglutination, immunofluorescent, and radioimmunoassay techniques. Anti-clover root antiserum had a higher agglutinating titer with infective strains of R. trifolii than with noninfective strains. The root antiserum previously adsorbed with noninfective R. trifolii cells remained reactive...
متن کاملMutant strains of clover rhizobium (Rhizobium trifolii) that form nodules on soybean (Glycine max).
Mutant strains of Rhizobium trifolii that induce nitrogenase activity in the free-living state were isolated. These strains, unlike the wild type, nodulated soybean and mungbean plants, producing effective nodules. One of the strains, strain DT72, also nodulated clover but the nodules were ineffective. Strain DT125 consumed hydrogen gas from the gas phase, which can be coupled to nitrogenase ac...
متن کاملInterstrain Competition between Representatives of Indigenous Serotypes of Rhizobium trifolii.
The symbiotic characteristics of Rhizobium trifolii strains 1-01 and 2-01 were evaluated both individually and in various combinations on two cultivars (Mt. Barker and Woogenellup) of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.). Nodules were observed on day 8 independent of cultivar or strain. Cultivar differences were measured in nodulating efficiency by 1-01 since 54% of the primary nodul...
متن کاملInterference between Rhizobium meliloti and Rhizobium trifolii nodulation genes: genetic basis of R. meliloti dominance.
Transfer of an IncP plasmid carrying the Rhizobium meliloti nodFE, nodG, and nodH genes to Rhizobium trifolii enabled R. trifolii to nodulate alfalfa (Medicago sativa), the normal host of R. meliloti. Using transposon Tn5-linked mutations and in vitro-constructed deletions of the R. meliloti nodFE, nodG, and nodH genes, we showed that R. meliloti nodH was required for R. trifolii to elicit both...
متن کاملProduction and Use of Monoclonal Antibodies for Identification of Strains of Rhizobium trifolii.
We produced a monoclonal antibody against Rhizobium trifolii 162x95. This antibody in cell culture supernatant was used in an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to differentiate strain 162x95 from naturalized strains in the Appalachian region. Nodules crushed in 0.1 to 0.2 ml of phosphate-buffered saline and used to charge enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay plates gave strong absorbance ...
