Mutation in the pssZ Gene Negatively Impacts Exopolysaccharide Synthesis, Surface Properties, and Symbiosis of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii with Clover
(MDPI, 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), ...

The underlying process of early ecological and genetic differentiation in a facultative mutualistic Sinorhizobium meliloti population
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
The question of how genotypic and ecological units arise and spread in natural microbial populations remains controversial in the field of evolutionary biology. Here, we investigated the early stages of ecological and ...

Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 invades lotus burttii by crack entry in a nod factor- and surface polysaccharide-dependent manner
(American Phytopathological Society, 2016)
Sinorhizobium fredii HH103-Rifr, a broad host range rhizobial strain, induces nitrogen-fixing nodules in Lotus burttii but ineffective nodules in L. japonicus. Confocal microscopy studies showed that Mesorhizobium loti ...

Sinorhizobium fredii Strains HH103 and NGR234 Form Nitrogen Fixing Nodules With Diverse Wild Soybeans (Glycine soja) From Central China but Are Ineffective on Northern China Accessions
(Frontiers Media, 2018)
Sinorhizobium fredii indigenous populations are prevalent in provinces of Central China whereas Bradyrhizobium species (Bradyrhizobium japonicum, B. diazoefficiens, B. elkanii, and others) are more abundant in northern and ...

Studies of rhizobial competitiveness for nodulation in soybean using a non-destructive split-root system
(AIMS Press, 2017)
Split-root systems (SRS) constitute an appropriate methodology for studying the relevance of both local and systemic mechanisms that participate in the control of rhizobia-legume symbioses. In fact, this kind of approach ...

Transcriptomic studies of the effect of nod gene-inducing molecules in rhizobia: Different weapons, one purpose
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018)
Simultaneous quantification of transcripts of the whole bacterial genome allows the analysis of the global transcriptional response under changing conditions. RNA-seq and microarrays are the most used techniques to measure ...

A transcriptomic analysis of the effect of genistein on Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 reveals novel rhizobial genes putatively involved in symbiosis
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)
Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 is a rhizobial soybean symbiont that exhibits an extremely broad host-range. Flavonoids exuded by legume roots induce the expression of rhizobial symbiotic genes and activate the bacterial protein ...

Structure and biological roles of Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 exopolysaccharide
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
Here we report that the structure of the Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 exopolysaccharide (EPS) is composed of glucose, galactose, glucuronic acid, pyruvic acid, in the ratios 5:2:2:1 and is partially acetylated. A S. fredii ...

Exopolysaccharide Production by Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 Is Repressed by Genistein in a NodD1-Dependent Manner
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
In the rhizobia-legume symbiotic interaction, bacterial surface polysaccharides, such as exopolysaccharide (EPS), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), K-antigen polysaccharide (KPS) or cyclic glucans (CG), appear to play crucial roles ...
