Expression of symbiotic genes of Rhizobium japonicum USDA 191 in other rhizobia.

Abstract:

:A 200-megadalton plasmid was mobilized from Rhizobium japonicum USDA 191 to other Rhizobium strains either that cannot nodulate soybeans or that form Fix- nodules on certain cultivars. The symbiotic properties of the transconjugants indicate that both soybean specificity for nodulation and cultivar specificity for nitrogen fixation are plasmid encoded.

  • Mutations which affect the structure and activity of colicin E3.

    abstract::Among 69 ColE3 mutant plasmids selected on the basis of their inability to produce an active colicin, seven (cop-1 to cop-7) were found to bear a mutation affecting the structural gene for colicin. Three of these (cop-1, cop-2 and cop-3) lead to the production of an inactive colicin molecule which has the same molecul...
