Bacteriocin-like substances produced by Rhizobium japonicum and other slow-growing rhizobia.
Bacteriocin-like substances were commonly produced by slow-growing Rhizobium japonicum and cowpea rhizobia on an L-arabinose medium. Antagonism between strains of R. japonicum was not detected in vitro; however, such strains were often sensitive to some bacteriocins produced by cowpea rhizobia. Inhibitory zones (2 to 8 mm from colony margins), produced by 58 of 66 R. japonicum test strains, wer...
متن کاملConservation of symbiotic nitrogen fixation gene sequences in Rhizobium japonicum and Bradyrhizobium japonicum.
Southern hybridization with nif (nitrogen fixation) and nod (nodulation) DNA probes from Rhizobium meliloti against intact plasmid DNA of Rhizobium japonicum and Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains indicated that both nif and nod sequences are on plasmid DNA in most R. japonicum strains. An exception is found with R. japonicum strain USDA194 and all B. japonicum strains where nif and nod sequences...
متن کاملTransposon Mutagenesis and Excision of R' Plasmids by Conjugative, Chimeric Plasmid pUW942 in Extra-Slow-Growing Rhizobium japonicum Strains.
Transposons Tn501 (specifying mercury resistance) and Tn7 (specifying resistance to trimethoprim and streptomycin) were introduced into extra-slow-growing Rhizobium japonicum by conjugal transfer of the 82 kilobase chimeric plasmid pUW942. Mercury-resistant transconjugants were obtained at a frequency of 10 to 10. The transfer frequency of streptomycin resistance was lower than that of mercury ...
متن کاملPredominance of Fast-Growing Rhizobium japonicum in a Soybean Field in the People's Republic of China.
Soybean rhizobia were isolated from two soils with different cropping histories from Hubei province in central China. The first, from Honghu county, has been under soybean cultivation for decades. All of the isolates obtained from nodules on soybeans growing in this soil were fast-growing, acid-producing rhizobia. However, slow-growing, alkali-producing isolates were obtained at higher dilution...
متن کاملL-Arabinose metabolism in Rhizobium japonicum.
l-Arabinose was metabolized through an oxidative pathway by extracts of a strain of Rhizobium japonicum. The findings showed that l-arabinose is converted into 2-keto-3-deoxy-l-arabonate, which is cleaved into glycoaldehyde and pyruvate.
