Respiratory Enzyme Systems in Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation: III. The Dehydrogenase Systems of Rhizobium trifolii and Rhizobium leguminosarum.
Earlier studies on the respiratory systems in symbiotic nitrogen fixation (Wilson, 1938) indicated that the root nodule bacteria (Rhizobium spp.) reduce methylene blue anerobically in the presence of many organic compounds. With few exceptions, the efficiency of a given substrate as a hydrogen donator was approximately the same whether molecular oxygen or methylene blue was used as the hydrogen...
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 کاملIn Vivo Nitrogenase Regulation by Ammonium and Methylamine and the Effect of MSX on Ammonium Transport in Anabaena flos-aquae.
Ammonium suppresses nitrogenase activity in Anabaena flos-aquae (Lyng) Breb. at all pH values tested. l-Methionine-dl-sulfoximine at 1 millimolar totally inhibited glutamine synthetase, and 10 micromolar partially inhibited. Both concentrations protected nitrogenase activity from ammonium-induced suppression at pH 7.1 and 8.1. At pH 9.3 and 10.2, methionine sulfoximine did not alleviate the sup...
متن کاملCongo 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 کاملGlutathione affects the transport activity of Rhizobium leguminosarum 3841 and is essential for efficient nodulation
As glutathione (GSH) plays an essential role in growth and symbiotic capacity of rhizobia, a glutathione synthetase (gshB) mutant of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae 3841 (Rlv3841) was characterised. It fails to efficiently utilise various compounds as a sole carbon source, including glucose, succinate, glutamine and histidine, and shows 60%-69% reduction in uptake rates of glucose, succin...
