TLDR
A Rhizobium meliloti DNA region (nodD1) involved in the regulation of other early nodulation genes has been delimited by directed Tn5 mutagenesis and its nucleotide sequence has been determined.About:

Rhizobium-legume nodulation: life together in the underground.
TL;DR: This review concerns a dramatic association, one of the few that has been studied in detail: the nitrogen fixing symbiosis between certain plants and microbes Rhizobium bacteria stimulate leguminous plants to develop root nodules, which the bacteria infect and inhabit.

Rhizobium-plant signal exchange
Robert F. Fisher,Sharon R. Long +1 more
TL;DR: Initial stages in the Rhizobium–legume symbiosis can be thought of as a reciprocal molecular conversation: transmission of a gene inducer from legume host to bacterium, with ensuing bacterial synthesis of a morphogen that is transmitted to the plant, switching the developmental fate of the legume root.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Rhizobium-plant symbiosis.
P van Rhijn,Jozef Vanderleyden +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of the organization, regulation, and function of the nod genes and their participation in the determination of the host specificity is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant Genetic Control of Nodulation
TL;DR: This chapter discusses nodulation in the absence of RHIZOBIUM SPP, and a working Hypothesis on the role of the BACTERIAL SYMBIONT in signal exchange.
Journal ArticleDOI
Signaling and host range variation in nodulation
TL;DR: The common and species-specific structural nod genes are involved in the synthesis of specific lipo-oligosaccharides that signal back to the plant to elicit root-hair deformations, cortical-cell divisions, and nodule-meristem formation.

Detection of specific sequences among DNA fragments separated by gel electrophoresis.
TL;DR: This paper describes a method of transferring fragments of DNA from agarose gels to cellulose nitrate filters that can be hybridized to radioactive RNA and hybrids detected by radioautography or fluorography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Construction and characterization of amplifiable multicopy DNA cloning vehicles derived from the P15A cryptic miniplasmid.
TL;DR: P15A-derived plasmids were not self-transmissible and were mobilized poorly by Hfr strains; however, mobilization was complemented by the presence of a ColE1 plasmid within the same cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
A complementation analysis of the restriction and modification of DNA in Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: Intercistronic complementation was observed between three classes of restriction and modification mutants of E. coli B, indicating that at least three cistron (the ram cistrons) are involved in the genetic control of the [restriction and modification of DNA].
Journal ArticleDOI
A new pair of M13 vectors for selecting either DNA strand of double-digest restriction fragments.
Joachim Messing,Jeffrey Vieira +1 more
TL;DR: Two new M13 vectors, M13MP8 and M13mp9, have been constructed that permit the cloning of the same restriction fragment in both possible orientations, allowing the use of only one of the two DNA strands as a template for M13 shotgun sequencing.
