Congo Red Absorption by Rhizobium leguminosarum.
Congo red absorption is generally considered a contraindication of Rhizobium. However, R. leguminosarum takes up the dye on yeast extract-mannitol agar. The uptake of congo red varies among strains of R. leguminosarum, as shown elsewhere with strains of R. trifolii and R. meliloti. Congo red absorption does not distinguish rhizobia from other bacteria, but may be useful as a strain marker.
متن کاملRhizobium gone native: unexpected plasmid stability of indigenous Rhizobium leguminosarum.
Lateral transfer of bacterial plasmids is thought to play an important role in microbial evolution and population dynamics. However, this assumption is based primarily on investigations of medically or agriculturally important bacterial species. To explore the role of lateral transfer in the evolution of bacterial systems not under intensive, human-mediated selection, we examined the associatio...
متن کاملCultivar Effects on Hydrogen Evolution by Rhizobium leguminosarum ' Received
The effect of host plant cultivar on H2 evolution by root nodules was examined in symbioses between Pisum sativum L. and selected strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum. Hydrogen evolution from root nodules containing Rhizobium represents the sum of H2 produced by the nitrogenase enzyme complex and H2 oxidized by any uptake hydrogenase present in those bacterial cells. Relative efficiency (RE) calc...
متن کاملGenetic transformation of Rhizobium leguminosarum by plasmid DNA.
We demonstrated the genetic transformation of Rhizobium leguminosarum by R68.45 plasmid DNA by freezing and thawing cell suspensions in the presence of R68.45 plasmid DNA and 20 mM MgCl2. Clones resistant to kanamycin and tetracycline were recovered at a frequency of 10(-8) per recipient cell. No colonies that were doubly drug resistant were recovered in parallel control experiments.
متن کاملRhizobium leguminosarum CFN42 lipopolysaccharide antigenic changes induced by environmental conditions.
Four monoclonal antibodies were raised against the lipopolysaccharide of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. phaseoli CFN42 grown in tryptone and yeast extract. Two of these antibodies reacted relatively weakly with the lipopolysaccharide of bacteroids of this strain isolated from bean nodules. Growth ex planta of strain CFN42 at low pH, high temperature, low phosphate, or low oxygen concentration also...
