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.

  • Genome of Rhizobium Leucaenae Strains CFN 299T and CPAO 29.8
    Ormeño-Orrillo et al. BMC Genomics (2016) 17:534 DOI 10.1186/s12864-016-2859-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Genome of Rhizobium leucaenae strains CFN 299T and CPAO 29.8: searching for genes related to a successful symbiotic performance under stressful conditions Ernesto Ormeño-Orrillo1†, Douglas Fabiano Gomes2,3†, Pablo del Cerro4, Ana Tereza Ribeiro Vasconcelos5, Carlos Canchaya6, Luiz Gonzaga Paula Almeida5, Fabio Martins Mercante7, Francisco Javier Ollero4, Manuel Megías4 and Mariangela Hungria2* Abstract Background: Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most important legume cropped worldwide for food production and its agronomic performance can be greatly improved if the benefits from symbiotic nitrogen fixation are maximized. The legume is known for its high promiscuity in nodulating with several Rhizobium species, but those belonging to the Rhizobium tropici “group” are the most successful and efficient in fixing nitrogen in tropical acid soils. Rhizobium leucaenae belongs to this group, which is abundant in the Brazilian “Cerrados” soils and frequently submitted to several environmental stresses. Here we present the first high-quality genome drafts of R. leucaenae, including the type strain CFN 299T and the very efficient strain CPAO 29.8. Our main objective was to identify features that explain the successful capacity of R. leucaenae in nodulating common bean under stressful environmental conditions. Results: The genomes of R. leucaenae strains CFN 299T and CPAO 29.8 were estimated at 6.7–6.8 Mbp; 7015 and 6899 coding sequences (CDS) were predicted, respectively, 6264 of which are common to both strains. The genomes of both strains present a large number of CDS that may confer tolerance of high temperatures, acid soils, salinity and water deficiency.

  • Specificity in Legume-Rhizobia Symbioses
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Specificity in Legume-Rhizobia Symbioses Mitchell Andrews * and Morag E. Andrews Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Lincoln University, PO Box 84, Lincoln 7647, New Zealand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +64-3-423-0692 Academic Editors: Peter M. Gresshoff and Brett Ferguson Received: 12 February 2017; Accepted: 21 March 2017; Published: 26 March 2017 Abstract: Most species in the Leguminosae (legume family) can fix atmospheric nitrogen (N2) via symbiotic bacteria (rhizobia) in root nodules. Here, the literature on legume-rhizobia symbioses in field soils was reviewed and genotypically characterised rhizobia related to the taxonomy of the legumes from which they were isolated. The Leguminosae was divided into three sub-families, the Caesalpinioideae, Mimosoideae and Papilionoideae. Bradyrhizobium spp. were the exclusive rhizobial symbionts of species in the Caesalpinioideae, but data are limited. Generally, a range of rhizobia genera nodulated legume species across the two Mimosoideae tribes Ingeae and Mimoseae, but Mimosa spp. show specificity towards Burkholderia in central and southern Brazil, Rhizobium/Ensifer in central Mexico and Cupriavidus in southern Uruguay. These specific symbioses are likely to be at least in part related to the relative occurrence of the potential symbionts in soils of the different regions. Generally, Papilionoideae species were promiscuous in relation to rhizobial symbionts, but specificity for rhizobial genus appears to hold at the tribe level for the Fabeae (Rhizobium), the genus level for Cytisus (Bradyrhizobium), Lupinus (Bradyrhizobium) and the New Zealand native Sophora spp. (Mesorhizobium) and species level for Cicer arietinum (Mesorhizobium), Listia bainesii (Methylobacterium) and Listia angolensis (Microvirga).

  • Rhizobium Tumorigenes Sp. Nov., a Novel Plant Tumorigenic Bacterium
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Rhizobium tumorigenes sp. nov., a novel plant tumorigenic bacterium isolated from cane gall tumors on Received: 24 October 2017 Accepted: 4 June 2018 thornless blackberry Published: xx xx xxxx Nemanja Kuzmanović 1, Kornelia Smalla1, Sabine Gronow2 & Joanna Puławska 3 Four plant tumorigenic strains 932, 1019, 1078T and 1081 isolated from cane gall tumors on thornless blackberry (Rubus sp.) were characterized. They shared low sequence identity with related Rhizobium spp. based on comparisons of 16S rRNA gene (≤98%) and housekeeping genes atpD, recA and rpoB (<90%). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the strains studied represent a novel species within the genus Rhizobium, with Rhizobium tubonense CCBAU 85046T as their closest relative. Furthermore, obtained average nucleotide identity (ANI) and in silico DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) values calculated for whole- genome sequences of strain 1078T and related Rhizobium spp. confrmed the authenticity of the novel species. The ANI-Blast (ANIb), ANI-MUMmer (ANIm) and in silico DDH values between strain 1078T and most closely related R. tubonense CCBAU 85046T were 76.17%, 84.11% and 21.3%, respectively. The novel species can be distinguished from R. tubonense based on phenotypic and chemotaxonomic properties. Here, we demonstrated that four strains studied represent a novel species of the genus Rhizobium, for which the name Rhizobium tumorigenes sp. nov. is proposed (type strain 1078T = DSM 104880T = CFBP 8567T). R. tumorigenes is a new plant tumorigenic species carrying the tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid. Plant tumorigenic bacteria belonging to the family Rhizobiaceae are associated with crown gall and cane gall diseases that can afect various plants1–3.

Based on their characterisation by polypha- sic taxonomy, their classification has undergone great changes in recent years. The current six rhizobium genera and 28 recognised species are reviewed here. Rhizobium / taxonomy Résumé – Taxonomie des rhizobia. Les rhizobia sont les bactéries qui forment des symbioses fixatrices d’azote avec des plantes de la famille des légumineuses. Suite à l’adoption de la taxonomie polyphasique comme critère de caractérisation, leur classification a subi de nombreux remaniements ces dernières années.

They inhabit root nodules, where they reduce atmospheric nitrogen and make it available to the plant. Biological nitrogen fixation is an important component of sustainable agriculture, and rhizobial inoculants have been applied frequently as biofertilizers. In this review we present recently developed technologies and strategies for selecting quality inoculant strains by taking into consideration the complex interaction between the edaphic environment with the genotypes of both the legume and its microsymbiont. Enhanced competitive ability in an inoculant strain is a key requirement for successful colonization of plant roots, nodule formation, and subsequent N2-fixation. We discuss several avenues for the management and manipulation of rhizobial competition as well as genes that influence competition in the rhizosphere.

  • Physiological and Phylogenetic Analysis of Rhizobia Isolated from Acacia Nilotica L
    African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 11(6), pp. 1386-1390, 19 January, 2012 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB DOI: 10.5897/AJB11.3030 ISSN 1684–5315 © 2012 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Physiological and phylogenetic analysis of rhizobia isolated from Acacia nilotica L. Kshipra Dhabhai* and Amla Batra Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory , Department of Botany, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, Rajasthan- 302004 India. Accepted 17 November, 2011 The legume-rhizobia relationship is known to be a beneficial symbiosis in the direction of agriculture. The present investigation was aimed to isolate and characterize five rhizobia isolates from woody legume tree; Acacia nilotica L. Physiological properties of all five isolated strains were similar. However, on the basis of nitrogen fixation test, only two isolates were symbiotic and the other three were non- symbiotic. Therefore, for phylogenetic analysis, only two isolates were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing for strains. Hence, the DNA was isolated from the well grown bacterial cultures. Amplified DNA was sequenced for 16S rRNA. The phylogenetic tree was constructed and bacterial isolates were identified as rhizobia. Isolate first showed strong homology with Mesorhizobium loti and isolate second showed intermediate with Rhizobium leguminosarum and Rhizobium hainanense. For the confirmation of nitrogen fixing ability of isolates, nifH gene was amplified. Application of effective rhizobia strains as biofertilizers to improve legume production is an important
