Auxotrophy in rhizobia revisited [PDF]
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.

A Model for the Development of the Rhizobial and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbioses in Legumes and Its Use to Understand the Roles of Ethylene in the Establishment of these two Symbioses [PDF]
We propose a model depicting the development of nodulation and arbuscular mycorrhizae. Both processes are dissected into many steps, using Pisum sativum L. nodulation mutants as a guideline. For nodulation, we distinguish two main developmental programs,

GuaB Activity Is Required in Rhizobium tropici During the Early Stages of Nodulation of Determinate Nodules but Is Dispensable for the Sinorhizobium meliloti–Alfalfa Symbiotic Interaction [PDF]
The guaB mutant strain Rhizobium tropici CIAT8999-10T is defective in symbiosis with common bean, forming nodules that lack rhizobial content. In order to investigate the timing of the guaB requirement during the nodule formation on the host common ...

Rhizobia are bacteria that exhibit both endophytic and free-living lifestyles. Endophytic rhizobial strains are widely known to infect leguminous host plants, while some do infect non-legumes.

Mesorhizobium septentrionale sp nov and Mesorhizobium temperatum sp nov., isolated from Astragalus adsurgens growing in the northern regions of China [PDF]
Ninety-five rhizobial strains isolated from Astragalus adsurgens growing in the northern regions of China were classified into three main groups, candidate species 1, 11 and 111, based on a polyphasic approach.

Promoter prediction in the rhizobia [PDF]
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.

H2S Crosstalk in Rhizobia Modulates Essential Nutrient Allocation and Transport in Soybean
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 ...

Endosymbiotic bacteria nodulating a new endemic lupine Lupinus mariae-josephi from alkaline soils in Eastern Spain represent a new lineage within the Bradyrhizobium genus [PDF]
Lupinus mariae-josephi is a recently described endemic Lupinus species from a small area in Eastern Spain where it thrives in soils with active lime and high pH. The L.

Cell surface lipopolysaccharides of different rhizobia [PDF]
Abstract Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis profiles of various cell surface lipopolysaccharides (LPS) obtained from fast-growing strains and plasmidless mutant strains of Rhizobium ‘hedysari’, R. leguminosarum and from slow-growing Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains have been compared.
