Absence of the nitrous oxide reductase gene cluster in commercial alfalfa inoculants is probably due to the extensive loss of genes during rhizobial domestication
(Springer, 2018-08)As other legume crops, alfalfa cultivation increases the emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). Since legumesymbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria play a crucial role in this emission, it is important to understand ... -
Engineering Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5 for nitrogen fixation and its application to improve plant growth under nitrogen-deficient conditions
(2013-05-13)Nitrogen is the second most critical factor for crop production after water. In this study, the beneficial rhizobacterium Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5 was genetically modified to fix nitrogen using the genes encoding the ... -
Stable symbiotic nitrogen fixation under water-deficit field conditions by a stress-tolerant alfalfa microsymbiont and its complete genome sequence : Short communication
(2017-12)We here characterized the stress-tolerant alfalfa microsymbiont Sinorhizobium meliloti B401. B401-treated plants showed high nitrogen fixation rates under humid and semiarid environments. The production of glycine betaine ... -
The ammonium channel NOD26 is the evolutionary innovation that drives the emergence, consolidation, and dissemination of nitrogen-fixing symbiosis in angiosperms
(Springer, 2018-10)Increasing evidence indicates that N-fixing symbiosis has evolved several times in the N-fixing clade of angiosperms and that this evolution is driven by a single evolutionary innovation. However, the genetics of this ...
