PCR use of highly conserved DNA regions for identification of Sinorhizobium meliloti.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A PCR identification method in which four primers that recognize homologous conserved regions in the Sinorhizobium meliloti genome are used was developed and tested. The regions used for identification were the nodbox 4 locus, which is located in one of the symbiotic megaplasmids, and the mucR gene, which is located in the chromosome. The new method was used to establish a collection of S. meliloti strains from polluted soils.

To characterize the geographical distribution of medicago-nodulating rhizobia in western regions of Iran, 950 Sinorhizobium isolates were trapped from a combination of two local alfalfa populations (Hamedani, Nikshahri) together with a foreign cultivar ( Kodi) and soil samples from eight sites across Kurdestan, Kermanshah, Eastern Azarbayjan and Lorestan provinces. Also, a total of 45 isolates ...

متن کاملDetailed studies of the binding mechanism of the Sinorhizobium meliloti transcriptional activator ExpG to DNA.
The exopolysaccharide galactoglucan promotes the establishment of symbiosis between the nitrogen-fixing Gram-negative soil bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti 2011 and its host plant alfalfa. The transcriptional regulator ExpG activates expression of galactoglucan biosynthesis genes by direct binding to the expA1, expG/expD1 and expE1 promoter regions. ExpG is a member of the MarR family of regula...
متن کاملIsolation, Cloning and Sequence Analysis of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Deaminase Gene from Native Sinorhizobium meliloti
Background: Many plant growth-promoting bacteria including Rhizobia contain the 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase enzyme that can leave ACC, and thereby lower the level of ethylene in stressed plants. Drought and salinity are the most common environmental stress factors for plants in Iran. Objectives: The main aim of this research was development of bio-fertilizers containing A...
متن کاملA highly conserved protein of unknown function is required by Sinorhizobium meliloti for symbiosis and environmental stress protection.
We report here the first characterization of the Sinorhizobium meliloti open reading frame SMc01113. The SMc01113 protein is a member of a highly conserved protein family, universal among bacteria. We demonstrate that the SMc01113 gene is absolutely required for S. meliloti symbiosis with alfalfa and also for the protection of the bacterium from a wide range of environmental stresses.
