Journal ArticleDOI
Different plasmids of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. phaseoli are required for optimal symbiotic performance.
Susana Brom,A García de los Santos,T Stepkowsky,Margarita Flores,Guillermo Dávila,David Romero,R Palacios +6 more
TL;DR: The results indicate global participation of the Rhizobium genome in symbiotic and free-living functions and found that in addition to pd, pb is also indispensable for nodulation, partly owing to the presence of genes involved in lipopolysaccharide synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conjugative transfer of p42a from rhizobium etli CFN42, which is required for mobilization of the symbiotic plasmid, is regulated by quorum sensing.
TL;DR: It is found that the conjugative transfer of p42a is dependent on quorum sensing, and consequently p Sym transfer also was found to be similarly regulated, establishing a complex link between environmental conditions and pSym transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amplification and deletion of a nod-nif region in the symbiotic plasmid of Rhizobium phaseoli.
TL;DR: A system which allows the positive selection for amplification and deletion events in the formation of rearrangements in the genome of Rhizobium phaseoli is designed and applied to investigate the stability of the symbiotic plasmid of R. phaseoli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reiterated DNA sequences in Rhizobium and Agrobacterium spp.
Margarita Flores,Víctor González,Susana Brom,Esperanza Martinez,Daniel Piñero,David Romero,Guillermo Dávila,Rafael Palacios +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the genomes of two Rhizobium phaseoli strains, one Rhizibium meliloti strain, and one Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain were analyzed for the presence of repetitive DNA.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Rhizobium etli symbiotic plasmid transfer, nodulation competitivity and cellular growth require interaction among different replicons.
TL;DR: The results presented in this work indicate that functional interactions among sequences scattered in the different plasmids are required for successful completion of both lifestyles.
