All nod genes of Rhizobium meliloti are involved in alfalfa nodulation by exo mutants.

Nodulation of alfalfa by exoB mutants of Rhizobium meliloti occurred without root hair curling or infection thread formation. nod exoB double mutants had the same nodulation deficiency as single nod mutants. Therefore, all the known nod genes are involved in nodule induction by exoB mutants, which apparently occurs via intercellular invasion.

Interactions among Flavonoid nod Gene Inducers Released from Alfalfa Seeds and Roots.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) seeds and roots can create complex rhizosphere effects by releasing flavonoids that induce nodulation (nod) genes in Rhizobium meliloti. Previous reports identified luteolin and 4,4'-dihydroxy-2'-methoxychalcone as strong inducers that are released from seeds and roots, respectively, and 4',7-dihydroxyflavone and 4',7-dihydroxyflavanone as weaker inducers which are ...

Isolation and characterization of the recA gene of Rhizobium meliloti.

Interspecific complementation of an Escherichia coli recA mutant with plasmids containing a gene bank of Rhizobium meliloti DNA was used to identify a clone which contains the recA gene of R. meliloti. The R. meliloti recA protein can function in recombination and in response to DNA damage when expressed in an E. coli recA host, and hybridization studies have shown that DNA sequence homology ex...

Chemotaxis of Rhizobium meliloti towards Nodulation Gene-Inducing Compounds from Alfalfa Roots.

Luteolin, a flavone present in seed exudates of alfalfa, induces nodulation genes (nod) in Rhizobium meliloti and also serves as a biochemically specific chemoattractant for the bacterium. The present work shows that R. meliloti RCR2011 is capable of very similar chemotactic responses towards 4',7-dihydroxyflavone, 4',7-Dihydroxyflavanone, and 4,4'-dihydroxy-2-methoxychalcone, the three princip...

Expression of Rhizobium meliloti nod genes in Rhizobium and Agrobacterium backgrounds.

Rhizobium meliloti nod genes are required for the infection of alfalfa. Induction of the nodC gene depends on a chemical signal from alfalfa and on nodD gene expression. By using a nodC-lacZ fusion, we have shown that the induction of the R. meliloti nodC gene and the expression of nodD occur at almost normal levels in other Rhizobium backgrounds and in Agrobacterium tumefaciens, but not in Esc...
