Genetic map of Rhizobium meliloti megaplasmid pRmeSU47b.
A circular linkage map of the Rhizobium meliloti megaplasmid pRmeSU47b was constructed. The map consists of transposon insertions carrying alternating antibiotic resistance markers linked by phi M12 transduction. Data from conjugation experiments utilizing donor strains carrying Tn5-oriT insertions in the megaplasmid supported the proposed genetic map. In addition, the positions of previously i...
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 کاملRhizobium meliloti exopolysaccharides: genetic analyses and symbiotic importance.
Genetic experiments have indicated that succinoglycan (EPS I), the acidic Calcofluor-binding exopolysaccharide, of the nitrogen-fixing bacterium Rhizobium meliloti strain Rm1021 is required for nodule invasion and possibly for later events in nodule development on alfalfa and other hosts. Fourteen exo loci on the second megaplasmid have been identified that are required for, or affect, the synt...
متن کاملAuxotrophic mutants of Rhizobium meliloti 104A14 were isolated using nitrous acid mutagenesis followed by penicillin enrichment. Mutants in ornithine transcarbamylase, argininosuccinate synthetase or serine-glycine biosynthesis formed nitrogen-fixing (Fix+) nodules on the roots of alfalfa
Auxotrophic mutants of Rhizobium meliloti 104A14 were isolated using nitrous acid mutagenesis followed by penicillin enrichment. Mutants in ornithine transcarbamylase, argininosuccinate synthetase or serine-glycine biosynthesis formed nitrogen-fixing (Fix+) nodules on the roots of alfalfa (Medicago sativa). Mutants with defects in ornithine, pyrimidine, purine, asparagine, leucine, methionine o...
متن کاملGenetic and physical analysis of the nodD3 region of Rhizobium meliloti.
The nodulation (nod) genes of the symbiont Rhizobium meliloti are transcriptionally controlled by protein activators in the nodD gene family. While NodD1 and NodD2 act in concert with small molecular weight inducers provided by the host legume plant, NodD3 is an inducer-independent activator of the nod promoters. We determined the sequence of the nodD3 gene, confirmed the expression of a 35 kDa...
