Sinorhizobium meliloti |
Using a Sinorhizobium meliloti strain carrying a gcdlacZ transcriptional fusion, gcd expression is detected from very early stages of plantbacteria interactions, at the rhizosphere level, and during further stages of nodule development |

malfunction |
alfalfa plants inoculated with RmH580, a Sinorhizobium meliloti gcd mutant strain show a delay in nodule emergence and a reduced ability for nodulation at various inoculum dosages. Mutant RmH580 strain is also deficient in its competitive ability. In coinoculation experiments a mutant/wild-type inoculum ratio higher than 100:1 is necessary to obtain an equal ratio of nodule occupancy. PQQ-linked GCD is required by Sinorhizobium meliloti for optimal nodulation efficiency and competitiveness on alfalfa roots |
