GENETIC IMPROVEMENT OF B. japonicum TO TOLERATE ABIOTIC STRESSES VIA PROTOPLAST FUSION [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2001
Two distinguished Bradyrhizobium japonicum Egyptian strains, i.e. SE8 and DO4, each was fused with the fast growing Rhizobium fredii USDA201 strain. Nine fusants were obtained in the first attempt (USDA 201 and SE8) and  four fusants were obtained in the

GENETIC CONSTRUCTION OF BROAD HOST RANGE Bradyrhizobium japonicum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Production, 2001
Protoplast fusion and conjugation were used to expand the Rhizobium host range. B.japonicum AS25 and R.leguminosarum biovar vicia ICARDA441 were fused and six, genetically stable, fusants were isolated.

Bacillus subtilis spores displaying RBD domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023
Bacillus subtilis spores are considered to be efficient and useful vehicles for the surface display and delivery of heterologous proteins. In this study, we prepared recombinant spores with the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike ...

Microbial diversity and the genetic nature of microbial species [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2008
The earth contains a huge number of largely uncharacterized Bacteria and Archaea. Microbiologists are struggling to summarize their genetic diversity and classify them, which has resulted in heated debates on methods for defining species, mechanisms that lead to speciation and whether microbial species even exist. This Review proposes that decisions on
