    Notes: Abstract Rhizobium strain ANU 289 derepressed nitrogenase activity under defined in vitro conditions. Acetylene reduction was detected both in agar and liquid stationary culture. The strain is capable of nitrogen-fixing nodulation of legumes [such as siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum Urb] as well as the non-legumes Parasponia andersonii and P. rugosa. Nitrogenase activity as high as 40–70 nmol C2H4 per mg protein after 7 days of incubation was detected. Strain ANU 289 was similar to Rhizobium strains 32 H1 and CB 756 with regard to oxygen requirement in the gas phase for development of nitrogenase activity between 0 and 10% O2, but showed increased sensitivity to oxygen repression at 20% O2. Strain ANU 289 also showed pronounced sensitivity to exogenous glutamine compared to strains 32 H1 and CB 756.

    Exopolysaccharide production in Rhizobium and its role in invasion (1990)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: A complex interaction between rhizobia and specific legume plants results in the formation of nitrogen-fixing root nodules. The necessity for signal exchange and a chemically based recognition system between the symbiotic partners has been appreciated for some time, but the details are only gradually being elucidated. The two basic nodule ontogenies exhibit different requirements for Rhizobium exopolysaccharides. These surface exopolysaccharide molecules of Rhizobium are synthesized at a membrane complex, which is regulated by both transcriptional and post-trans-lational controls. The acidic exopolysaccharide probably plays both a passive and an active role during the invasion process.

    Rhizobium nodulation genes involved in root hair curling (Hac) are functionally conserved (1985)
    Springer
    Plant molecular biology 4 (1985), S. 147-160 
    Details

    Keywords: Rhizobium Nod genes ; functional conservation

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Five specific transposon-induced nodulation defective (Nod−) mutants from different fast-growing species ofRhizobium were used as the recipients for the transfer of each of several endogenous Sym(biosis) plasmids or for recombinant plasmids that encode early nodulation and host-specificity functions. The Nod− mutants were derived fromR. trifolii, R. meliloti and from a broad-host-rangeRhizobium strain which is able to nodulate both cowpea (tropical) legumes and the non-legumeParasponia. These mutants had several common features (a), they were Nod− on all their known plant hosts, (b), they could not induce root hair curling (Hac−) and (c), the mutations were all located on the endogenous Sym-plasmid of the respective strain. Transfer to these mutants of Sym plasmids (or recombinant plasmids) encoding heterologous information for clover nodulation (pBR1AN, pRt032, pRt038), for pea nodulation (pJB5JI, pRL1JI::Tn1831), for lucerne nodulation (pRmSL26), or for the nodulation of both tropical legumes and non-legumes (pNM4AN), was able to restore root hair curling capacity and in most cases, nodulation capacity of the original plant host(s). This demonstrated a functional conservation of at least some genes involved in root hair curling. Positive hybridization between Nod DNA sequences fromR. trifolii and from a broad-host-rangeRhizobium strain (ANU240) was obtained to other fast-growingRhizobium strains. These results indicate that at least some of the early nodulation functions are common in a broad spectrum ofRhizobium strains.

    Effects of pH, Ca and Al on the exudation from clover seedlings of compounds that induce the expression of nodulation genes inRhizobium trifolii (1988)

    Notes: Abstract The expression of nodulation genes inR. trifolii is induced by flavone compounds present in clover root exudates. In the present experiments a bioassay with an indicator strain ofR. trifolii, which contained thelacZ gene fromEscherichia coli fused to theR. trifolii nodA gene, was used to measure the level ofnod gene expression inR. trifolii. Compounds that stimulatednodA gene expression were shown to be present in exudates of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) and nine cultivars of subterranan clover (T. subterraneum L.) seedling sgrown at a range of pH between pH 3.0 and pH 8.0. Thenod gene-induction activity of exudates was, however, reduced when seedlings of all clover species were grown at pH〉7.0 and at pH〈4.0 and pH〈5.0 for white clover and subterranean clover respectively. No major differences were apparent in the activity of exudates from seedlings of the various cultivars of subterranean clover.Nod gene-induction activity of exudates was shown to increase markedly with seedling age. The presence of Ca at concentrations up to 10 mM in seedling culture solutions also resulted in marked increases in thenod gene-induction activity of seedling exudates. Increases in activity due to the presence of Ca were most apparent at low pH where between 5 and 10-fold increases were observed for white clover and subterranean clover respectively. Conversely, the presence of Al at concentrations up to 60 μM in seedling culture solutions had no effect on thenod gene-induction activity of seedling exudates. The observations that both low pH and Ca concentrations affected thenod gene-induction activity of seedling exudates suggested that the net presence of stimulatory flavones in root exudates was an important contributing factor to the ‘acid-sensitive’ step in nodule formation.

    Taxonomic status ofAnabaena azollae: An overview (1988)

    Notes: Abstract Despite the long-standing and widespread use of the symbiotic association between the aquatic fern Azolla and its cyanobacterial symbiontAnabaena azollae to augment nitrogen supplies in rice paddy soils, very little is known about taxonomic aspects of the symbiosis. The two partners normally remain associated throughout vegetative and reproductive development, limiting the opportunities for interchanges. We have used monoclonal antibodies and DNA/DNA hybridization techniques to show that the cyanobacterial partner is not uniform throughout the genus Azolla, and that substantial diversification has occurred. With these procedures it will be possible to characterize genotypes of the cyanobacterium and to monitor experiments aimed at synthesizing new combinations ofAzolla species andAnabaena azollae strains.

    Nodulation of specific legumes is controlled by several distinct loci in Rhizobium trifolii (1986)

    Details

    Keywords: Rhizobium trifolii ; host range genes
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Three distinct loci (designated regions III, IV and V) were identified in the 14 kb Nod region of Rhizobium trifolii strain ANU843 and were found to determine the host range characteristics of this strain. Deletion of region III or region V only from the 14 kb Nod region affected clover nodulation capacity. The introduction to R. Leguminosarum of DNA fragments on multicopy vectors carrying regions III, IV and V (but not smaller fragments) extended the host range of R. leguminosarum so that infection threads and nodules occurred on white clover plants. The same DNA fragments were introduced to the Sym plasmid-cured strain (ANU845) carrying the R. meliloti recombinant nodulation plasmid pRmSL26. Plasmid pRmSL26 alone does not confer root hair curling or nodulation on clover plants. However, the introduction to ANU845 (pRmSL26) of a 1.4 kb fragment carrying R. trifolii region IV only, resulted in the phenotypic activation of marked root hair curling ability to this strain on clovers but no infection events or nodules resulted. Only the transfer of regions III, IV and V to strain ANU845 (pRmSL26) conferred normal nodulation and host range ability of the original wild type R. trifolii strain. These results indicate that the host range genes determine the outcome of early plant-bacterial interactions primarily at the stage of root hair curling and infection.

    Notes: Summary Fast-growingRhizobium japnicum strains derived from the People's Republic of China were compared with a fast-growingRhizobium isolate from Lablab for their ability to nodulate tropical legumes grown in Leonard-jars and test tube culture. Fast-growingR. japonicum strains were all effective to varying degrees in their symbiosis withVigna unguiculata. Two strains USDA 192 and USDA 201, effectively nodulatedGlycine whightii and one strain, USDA 193, effectively nodulatedMacroptilium atropurpureum. Other nodulation responses in tropical legumes were ineffective. The fast-growing isolate from Lablab was more promiscuous, effectively nodulating with a larger host range. The fast-growing Lablab strain was considered more akin, on a symbiotic basis, to the slow-growing cowpea type rhizobia than the fast-growing China strains ofR. japonicum whilst maintaining physiological characteristics of other fast-growing rhizobia.
