    Notes: Abstract  Endosymbionts from the Ethiopian highland acacia species Acacia abyssinica, A. negrii and A. etbaica, and the lowland species A. nilotica, A. prasinata, A.senegal, A. seyal, A. tortilis and Faidherbia (Acacia) albida were isolated and characterized. Seven tree species were found to be nodulated by species of both Rhizobium and Bradyrhizobium. F. (Acacia) albida and A. senegal were nodulated by only Bradyrhizobium or Rhizobium, respectively. In A. abyssinica, both genera were isolated from the same nodule, whereas in A. nilotica and A. tortilis, both strains were isolated from different nodules of the same plant. The nitrogen fixation (acetylene reduction) activities varied considerably and showed no correlation with the nitrogen content of the plant. Highland species were as effective as lowland plants, thus demonstrating good potential for soil reclamation. The endosymbionts isolated proved rather promiscuous, efficiently nodulating other Acacia spp. and some tropical grain legumes, but did not nodulate temperate legumes.

    Notes: Abstract African yam bean (Sphenostylis stenocarpa), which is widely cultivated in Africa because of its growth capability on marginal soils, was nodulated by an endosymbiont (characterized and designed Bradyrhizobium sp. AUEB20) isolated from the Ethiopian tree Erythrina brucei with the formation of a small number of large, indeterminate N2-fixing nodules. In contrast, 24 other isolates from Ethiopian woody legumes were ineffective. Strain AUEB20 promiscuously nodulated a number of tropical legumes, but none out of five European crop plants tested.

    Notes: Abstract Addition of ammonium to N2 fixing cultures of Azotobacter vinelandii, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Clostridium pasteurianum rapidly reduced the intracellular levels of guanosine 5′-diphosphate 3′-diphosphate (ppGpp) by 70–90%. This change might reflect a regulatory role of ppGpp in nitrogen metabolism.

    Notes: Abstract The primary steps of N2, ammonia and nitrate metabolism in Klebsiella pneumoniae grown in a continuous culture are regulated by the kind and supply of the nitrogenous compound. Cultures growing on N2 as the only nitrogen source have high activities of nitrogenase, unadenylated glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase and low levels of glutamate dehydrogenase. If small amounts of ammonium salts are added continuously, initially only part of it is absorbed by the organisms. After 2–3 h complete absorption of ammonia against an ammonium gradient coinciding with an increased growth rate of the bacteria is observed. The change in the extracellular ammonium level is paralleled by the intracellular glutamine concentration which in turn regulates the glutamine synthetase activity. An increase in the degree of adenylation correlates with a repression of nitrogenase synthesis and an induction of glutamate dehydrogenase synthesis. Upon deadenylation these events are reversed.—After addition of nitrate ammonia appears in the medium, probably due to the action of a membrane bound dissimilatory nitrate reductase.—Addition of dinitrophenol causes transient leakage of intracellular ammonium into the medium.

    Whole cell respiration and nitrogenase activities in Azotobacter vinelandii growing in oxygen controlled continuous culture (1983)

    Notes: Abstract Azotobacter vinelandii strain OP was grown in continuous culture at various dissolved oxygen concentrations of air (100% air saturation of the medium=225 ±14 μM O2). Sucrose was added as carbon source and either dinitrogen or ammonia as nitrogen sources. Irrespective of the nitrogen source steady state cultures showed the following general responses with dissolved oxygen concentrations increasing from about 1% to 30% air saturation: (i) cell protein levels, (ii) the amount of cell protein formed per sucrose consumed as well as (iii) nitrogenase activity decreased by at least a factor of two while (iv) cellular respiration increased. At higher oxygen concentrations the parameters changed only slightly, if at all. Increasing the sucrose concentration in the inflowing medium (s R) from 3 g/l to 15 g/l increased the total level of cellular respiration with nitrogen-fixing cultures but was more pronounced with ammonium-assimilating cultures. With nitrogen-fixing cultures cell protein levels increased five-fold while the ratio of protein formed per sucrose consumed as well as cellular nitrogenase activity remained unaffected. With ammonium-assimilating cultures the cell protein level was only doubled and the level of cell protein formed per sucrose consumed was decreased at the higher s R. Increasing the dilution rate at a constant oxygen concentration of 45% air saturation resulted in an almost parallel increase of both cellular respiratory and nitrogenase activity at low and moderate dilution rates. At high dilution rates nitrogenase activity increased steeply over the respiratory activity. Nitrogen-fixing cultures adapted to various oxygen concentrations were subjected to oxygen stress by increasing the oxygen concentration for 7 min. In all cases, this resulted in a complete inhibition (‘switch-off’) of nitrogenase activity. Upon restoration of the original oxygen concentration nitrogenase activity returned to a decreased level. The discussion arrives at the conclusion that some of the results are incompatible with the concept of respiratory protection of nitrogenase.

    Regulation of ammonium uptake and metabolism by nitrogen fixing bacteria. III. Clostridium pasteurianum (1979)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Addition of ammonium salts to N2 fixing continuous cultures of Clostridium pasteurianum caused immediate stop of nitrogenase synthesis, while the levels of glutamine synthetase, glutamate dehydrogenase and asparagine synthetase remained constant. No evidence for an interconversion of the glutamine synthetase was found. The activities of glutamate synthase in crude extracts were inversely related to the nitrogenase levels. The intracellular glutamine pool rapidly expanded during nitrogenase repression and decreased as fast during derepression while the pool sizes of all other amino acids were not strongly related to the rate of nitrogenase formation. These investigations suggest glutamine as corepressor of nitrogenase synthesis.
