Elemental composition of strawberry plants inoculated with the plant growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense REC3, assessed with scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analysis.
The elemental composition of strawberry plants (Fragaria ananassa cv. Macarena) inoculated with the plant growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense REC3, and non-inoculated controls, was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDS) analysis. This allowed simultaneous semi-quantification of different elements in a small, solid sample. Plants were in...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Azospirillum brasilense CBG497 and Comparative Analyses of Azospirillum Core and Accessory Genomes provide Insight into Niche Adaptation
Bacteria of the genus Azospirillum colonize roots of important cereals and grasses, and promote plant growth by several mechanisms, notably phytohormone synthesis. The genomes of several Azospirillum strains belonging to different species, isolated from various host plants and locations, were recently sequenced and published. In this study, an additional genome of an A. brasilense strain, isola...
متن کاملEndophytic bacteria in rice seeds inhibit early colonization of roots by Azospirillum brasilense
From the rhizoplane of Oryza sativa, vars. Morelos A-88 and Apatzingan, rice plantlets, we isolated two bacterial strains: Corynebacterium flavescens and Bacillus pumilus. By scanning electron microscopy, endophytic bacteria were frequently identified at the base of secondary roots, between the epidermis and the mucilaginous layer. Endophytes were also identified in the intercellular spaces whe...
متن کاملWheat root colonization and nitrogenase activity by Azospirillum isolates from crop plants in Korea.
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria were isolated from the rhizosphere of different crops of Korea. A total of 16 isolates were selected and characterized. Thirteen of the isolates produced characteristics similar to those of the reference strains of Azospirillum, and the remaining 3 isolates were found to be Enterobacter spp. The isolates could be categorized into 3 groups based on their ARDRA patterns, ...
متن کاملCloning and expression in Escherichia coli of the Azospirillum brasilense Sp7 gene encoding ampicillin resistance.
The Azospirillum brasilense ATCC 29145 gene coding for beta-lactamase was cloned in Escherichia coli. The gene was expressed in E. coli from its own promoter as a 30-kilodalton protein, conferring resistance to high levels of beta-lactam antibiotics. The DNA sequence containing the beta-lactamase gene was found to be highly amplified in the Azospirillum genome, scattered in the chromosomal as w...
