Distribution of O-acetyl groups in the exopolysaccharide synthesized by Rhizobium leguminosarum strains is not determined by the Sym plasmid.
The patterns of O-acetylation of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) from the Sym plasmid-cured derivatives of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii strain LPR5, R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii strain ANU843 and R. leguminosarum bv. viciae strain 248 were determined by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Beside a site indicative of the chromosomal background, these strains have one site of O-acetylation in commo...
متن کاملMutant strains of clover rhizobium (Rhizobium trifolii) that form nodules on soybean (Glycine max).
Mutant strains of Rhizobium trifolii that induce nitrogenase activity in the free-living state were isolated. These strains, unlike the wild type, nodulated soybean and mungbean plants, producing effective nodules. One of the strains, strain DT72, also nodulated clover but the nodules were ineffective. Strain DT125 consumed hydrogen gas from the gas phase, which can be coupled to nitrogenase ac...
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 کاملTransposon mediation allows a symbiotic plasmid of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii to become a symbiosis island in Agrobacterium and Rhizobium.
The symbiotic plasmid (pSym) of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii 4S5, which carries Tn5-mob, was successfully transferred into Agrobacterium tumefaciens A136 by using a conjugation method. The resulting transconjugants induced the development of ineffective nitrogen-fixing nodules on the roots of white clover seedlings. Depending on the manner in which the pSym was retained, the transconjug...
متن کاملPLASMID MEDIATED METAL AND ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA STRAINS ISOLATED FROM BURN PATIENTS
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a leading cause of bum infections, and antibiotic- resistant strains of this bacterium are emerging due to extensive application of antibiotics in the bum unit of hospitals. In this study 50 strains of P. aeruginosa were isolated from bum patients infected with this micro-organism in the bum unit of a general hospital in Kerman, Iran over one year [May 1999-ApriI20...
