Transposon 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...

Symbiotic plasmid rearrangement in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae VF39SM.

A rearrangement between the symbiotic plasmid (pRleVF39d) and a nonsymbiotic plasmid (pRleVF39b) in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae VF39 was observed. The rearranged derivative showed the same plasmid profile as its parent strain, but hybridization to nod, fix, and nif genes indicated that most of the symbiotic genes were now present on a plasmid corresponding in size to pRleVF39b instead of...

A genetic locus necessary for rhamnose uptake and catabolism in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii.

Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii mutants unable to catabolize the methyl-pentose rhamnose are unable to compete effectively for nodule occupancy. In this work we show that the locus responsible for the transport and catabolism of rhamnose spans 10,959 bp. Mutations in this region were generated by transposon mutagenesis, and representative mutants were characterized. The locus contains gene...

Construction of a Symbiotically Effective Strain of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii with Increased Nodulation Competitiveness.

Genes involved in nodulation competitiveness (tfx) were inserted by marker exchange into the genome of the effective strain Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii TA1. Isogenic strains of TA1 were constructed which differed only in their ability to produce trifolitoxin, an antirhizobial peptide. Trifolitoxin production by the ineffective strain R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii T24 limited nodulation...

Lipoprotein PssN of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii: subcellular localization and possible involvement in exopolysaccharide export.

Surface expression of exopolysaccharides (EPS) in gram-negative bacteria depends on the activity of proteins found in the cytoplasmic membrane, the periplasmic space, and the outer membrane. pssTNOP genes identified in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii strain TA1 encode proteins that might be components of the EPS polymerization and secretion system. In this study, we have characterized PssN...
