Biochemical Society Transactions, 2021 The interaction between rhizobia and their legume host plants conduces to the formation of specialized root organs called nodules where rhizobia differentiate into bacteroids which fix atmospheric nitrogen to the benefit of the plant. This beneficial symbiosis is of importance in the context of sustainable agriculture as legumes do not require the ...

Agronomie, 2001 Rhizobia are the bacteria that form nitrogen-fixing symbioses with legumes. Based on their characterisation by polyphasic taxonomy, their classification has undergone great changes in recent years. The current six rhizobium genera and 28 recognised species are reviewed here.

Specificity in Legume-Rhizobia Symbioses [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 The Leguminosae (legume family) is divided into three sub-families, the Caesalpiniodeae, Mimosoideae and Papilionoideae. Here, the literature on legume-rhizobia symbioses was reviewed, and genotypically characterised rhizobia related to the taxonomy of the legumes they were isolated from. Only data from field soils were considered. The objective of the

Rhizobia and Legume Nodulation Genes
, 2013 Most legume plants are able to enter into a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing soil bacteria commonly referred to as rhizobia. This interaction leads to the formation of novel root organs called nodules in which the rhizobia are housed. The symbiosis provides the legume host with a tremendous competitive advantage over other plant species that

The interaction between Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, rhizobia and root-lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus thornei) in mung bean (Vigna radiata) [PDF]
, 2021 There are a limited number of reports on interactions between the beneficial microsymbionts arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and rhizobia which co-occur with the root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus sp. within the roots of legumes.

Dicarboxylate transport by rhizobia [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2004 Soil bacteria collectively known as rhizobia are able to convert atmospheric dinitrogen to ammonia while participating in a symbiotic association with legume plants. This capability has made the bacteria an attractive research subject at many levels of investigation, especially since physiological and metabolic specialization are central to this ...

Promoter prediction in the rhizobia [PDF]
Microbiology, 2006 The ability to recognize and predict non-σ54promoters in the alphaproteobacteria is not well developed. In this study, 25 experimentally verifiedSinorhizobium melilotipromoter sequences were compiled and used to predict the location of other related promoters in theS. melilotigenome.

Nitrogen oxide reduction in rhizobia
, 2004 Rhizobia are soil bacteria typically able to symbiotically interact with legume plants to produce nitrogen fixing root nodules. While all rhizobia were once placed under the same genus, Rhizobium, nowadays the classification of rhizobia using molecular analysis has revealed a more complex relationship among strains.

Auxotrophy in rhizobia revisited [PDF]
Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2007 Among the various types of mutations studied in rhizobia, the auxotrophic mutations (which confer on the mutants the inability to synthesize certain essential substances such as amino acids, vitamins and nucleic acids), are the most favoured ones as these can be used as suitable markers for genetic analysis.

H2S Crosstalk in Rhizobia Modulates Essential Nutrient Allocation and Transport in Soybean
Agronomy, 2023 Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a novel gas signaling molecule, plays a crucial role in plant growth and stress response. However, little attention has been devoted to the regulation of H2S on nutrient transport and utilization in legume–rhizobia symbiosis ...
