Acetic acid bacteria belonging to the new genus Asaia and the genera Gluconobacter, Gluconacetobacter, Acetobacter and Acidomonas of the alpha ─ 1 sub- group ubiquitously contained spermidine as the major polyamine. Aerobic bacteriochlorophyll a ─ containing Acidisphaera, Craurococcus and Paracraurococcus(alpha ─ 1)and Roseibium (alpha-2)contained spermidine and lacked homospermidine. New Rhizobium species, including some species transferred from the genera Agrobacterium and Allorhizobium, and new Sinorhizobium and Mesorhizobium species of the alpha ─ 2 subgroup contained homospermidine as a major polyamine. Homospermidine was the major polyamine in the genera Oligotropha, Carbophilus, Zavarzinia, Blastobacter, Starkeya and Rhodoblastus of the alpha ─ 2 subgroup. Rhodobaca bogoriensis of the alpha ─ 3 subgroup contained spermidine. Within the alpha ─ 4 sub- group, the genus Sphingomonas has been divided into four clusters, and species of the emended Sphingomonas(cluster I)contained homospermidine whereas those of the three newly described genera Sphingobium, Novosphingobium and Sphingopyxis(corresponding to clusters II, III and IV of the former Sphingomonas)ubiquitously contained spermidine.

Since then the taxonomy of bacteria has been revolutionized several times. At present, 30 phyla belong to the domain “Bacteria”, which includes over 9600 species. Unlike many eukaryotes, bacteria lack complex morphological characters and practically phylogenetically informative fossils. It is partly due to these reasons that bacterial taxonomy is complicated.

  • Rhizobia Symbiosis and Bet-Hedging in the Soil
    Resource hoarding facilitates cheating in the legume- rhizobia symbiosis and bet-hedging in the soil A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY William C. Ratcliff IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY R. Ford Denison June, 2010 © William C. Ratcliff, 2010 Acknowledgements None of this would have been possible without my advisor Ford Denison. During the last five years he‟s spurred my growth as a scientist by supporting me intellectually, by having the confidence that I can rise to considerable challenges (“Can you write a full- sized NSF grant in a month?”), and by inspiring me with his genuine love of science. He also has a habit of putting my interests before his. When I leave Minnesota, I‟ll miss nothing more than our frequent discussions about life, the universe, and everything. I would also like to thank my committee members Mike Travisano, Ruth Shaw, Mike Sadowsky and Peter Tiffin. They provided valuable feedback during the course of this research, and their comments substantially improved this dissertation. I especially want to thank Mike Travisano. His arrival at the U in 2007 marked a turning point in my research and I‟ve learned more from him than anyone else except Ford. Where would this research be without money? It probably wouldn‟t exist, and thus I was fortunate to have plenty of it. The National Science Foundation has been generous, awarding me a Graduate Research Fellowship and Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Grant, and has even decided to pick up the tab for my first postdoc.

  • Sinorhizobium Meliloti RNA-Hfq Protein Associations in Vivo Mengsheng Gao1*, Anne Benge1, Julia M
    Gao et al. Biological Procedures Online (2018) 20:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12575-018-0075-8 METHODOLOGY Open Access Use of RNA Immunoprecipitation Method for Determining Sinorhizobium meliloti RNA-Hfq Protein Associations In Vivo Mengsheng Gao1*, Anne Benge1, Julia M. Mesa1, Regina Javier1 and Feng-Xia Liu2 Abstract Background: Soil bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti (S. meliloti) forms an endosymbiotic partnership with Medicago truncatula (M. truncatula) roots which results in root nodules. The bacteria live within root nodules where they function to fix atmospheric N2 and supply the host plant with reduced nitrogen. The bacterial RNA-binding protein Hfq (Hfq) is an important regulator for the effectiveness of the nitrogen fixation. RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) method is a powerful method for detecting the association of Hfq protein with specific RNA in cultured bacteria, yet a RIP method for bacteria living in root nodules remains to be described. Results: A modified S. meliloti gene encoding a His-tagged Hfq protein (HfqHis) was placed under the regulation of His thenativeHfqgenepromoter(Phfqsm). The trans produced Hfq protein was accumulated at its nature levels during all stages of the symbiosis, allowing RNAs that associated with the given protein to be immunoprecipitated with the anti-His antibody against the protein from root nodule lysates. RNAs that associated with the protein were selectively enriched in the immunoprecipitated sample. The RNAs were recovered by a simple method using heat and subsequently analyzed by RT-PCR. The nature of PCR products was determined by DNA sequencing. Hfq association with specific RNAs can be analyzed at different conditions (e. g.

The development of nitrogen-fixing nodules is stringently regulated by host plants and rhizobial symbionts. In our pre- vious work, a new Sinorhizobium meliloti LysR regulator gene (lsrB) was identified to be essential for alfalfa nodulation. Howev- er, how this gene is involved in alfalfa nodulation was not yet understood. Here, we found that this gene was associated with pre- vention of premature nodule senescence and abortive bacteroid formation. Heterogeneous deficient alfalfa root nodules were in- duced by the in-frame deletion mutant of lsrB (lsrB1-2), which was similar to the plasmid-insertion mutant, lsrB1. Irregular se- nescence zones earlier appeared in these nodules where bacteroid differentiation was blocked at different stages from microscopy observations. Interestingly, oxidative bursts were observed in these nodules by DAB staining.

  • Allorhizobium Vitis (Ophel and Kerr 1990) Mousavi Et Al
    -- CALIFORNIA D EPAUMENT OF cdfa FOOD & AGRICULTURE ~ California Pest Rating Proposal for Allorhizobium vitis (Ophel and Kerr 1990) Mousavi et al. 2016 Crown gall of grapevine Current Pest Rating: Z Proposed Pest Rating: C Domain: Bacteria; Phylum: Proteobacteria Class: Alphaproteobacteria; Order: Rhizobiales Family: Rhizobiaceae Comment Period: 04/30/2021 through 06/14/2021 Initiating Event: The pathogen that causes crown gall disease on grape has undergone multiple taxonomic revisions and name changes. It was known for decades as Agrobacterium vitis. The current preferred name is Allorhizobium vitis (Mousavi et al., 2016) and it has not been given a formal pest rating. The risk to California from Al. vitis is described herein and a permanent pest rating is proposed. History & Status: Background: In the early 1890s, USDA plant pathologist Erwin F. Smith showed that crown gall disease was caused by a bacterium. It was thought to be similar or related to cancerous tumors of humans and animals. In the late 1970s and in the 1980s, detailed studies were made to better understand the mechanisms of presumed “plant cancer”. Bacterial infections caused by crown gall pathogens result in the production of undifferentiated cells in galls (tumors), partially organized teratomas, or hairy roots on plants. Research showed this bacterium, known at the time as Agrobacterium tumefaciens sensu lato induces tumor formation in plants by transferring a single-stranded segment of T-DNA into plant cells via the Ti plasmid. The T-DNA becomes incorporated into the plant genome and is transcribed by the infected plant cell. The T-DNA contains several genes related to plant growth regulators, including one that codes for an auxin and another -- CALIFORNIA D EPAUMENT OF cdfa FOOD & AGRICULTURE ~ that codes for a cytokinin.

PhoD and PhoX alkaline phosphatases and AcpA acid phosphatase are produced by microorganisms in response to phosphorus limitation in the environment. In this thesis, the current knowledge of the prevalence of phoD and phoX in the environment and of their taxonomic distribution was assessed, and new molecular tools were developed to target the phoD and phoX alkaline phosphatase genes in soil microorganisms.

One sentence summary: Nitrogen controls expression of mmgR sRNA in Sinorhizobium meliloti. Editor: Olga Ozoline ABSTRACT Small non-coding regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are key players in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Hundreds of sRNAs have been identifed in Sinorhizobium meliloti,buttheirbiologicalfunctionremainsunknownformostofthem.In this study, we characterized the expression pattern of the gene encoding the 77-nt sRNA MmgR in S. meliloti strain 2011. A by guest on April 18, 2016 chromosomal transcriptional reporter fusion (PmmgR-gfp) showed that the mmgR promoter is active along different stages of the interaction with alfalfa roots. In pure cultures, PmmgR-gfp activity paralleled the sRNA abundance indicating that mmgR expression is primarily controlled at the level of transcriptional initiation. PmmgR-gfp activity was higher during growth in rhizobial defned medium (RDM) than in TY medium.

Partial 16S rDNA analysis revealed the presence of only two rDNA homology (i.e., identity) groups among the 17 Bradyrhizobium strains. The partial 16S rDNA sequences of Bradyrhizobium sp. strains form a tight similarity (>95%) cluster with Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Nitrobacter species, Afipia species, and Blastobacter denitrifi- cans but were less similar to other members of the a-Proteobacteria, including other members of the Rhizobi- aceae family. Clustering the Bradyrhizobium sp. strains for their RAPD profiles, protein profiles, and substrate utilization data revealed more diversity than rDNA analysis. Intrinsic antibiotic resistance yielded strain- specific patterns that could not be clustered.
