HmsB, a small RNA, enhances biofilm formation in Yersinia pestis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The hmsHFRS operon is responsible for biosynthesis and translocation of biofilm matrix exopolysaccharide. Yersinia pestis expresses the two sole diguanylate cyclases HmsT and HmsD and the sole phosphodiesterase HmsP, which are specific for biosynthesis ...

Mutation in the pssZ Gene Negatively Impacts Exopolysaccharide Synthesis, Surface Properties, and Symbiosis of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii with Clover [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii is a soil bacterium capable of establishing a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with clover plants (Trifolium spp.). This bacterium secretes large amounts of acidic exopolysaccharide (EPS), which plays an essential role in ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

Cyanobacterial exopolysaccharides

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Exatas e Tecnológicas, 2004
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are characterized as secondary metabolites being produced predominantly during the stationary growth phase of the microorganism. The capacity of cyanobacteria to produce extracellular polysaccharides has been related since the beginning of the 1950s.

Cyclophilin A‐mediated cis/trans isomerization modulates RIN4 to control intracellular rhizobial infection in legumes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In most legume‐rhizobium symbioses, rhizobial colonization occurs through host‐derived intracellular infection threads, which enable rhizobial recruitment while presumably modulating the host immune system to prevent rejection. To investigate post‐translational regulation of immune responses during rhizobial infection, we focused on Cyclophilin
