Pleiotropic physiological effects in the plant growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense following chromosomal labeling in the clpX gene.

Abstract:

:Azospirillum brasilense 8-I was chromosomally labeled with green fluorescent protein (gfp) genes, using either the native promoterless gfp gene or the mutant gfpmut2 gene under the transcriptional control of the neomycin phosphate transferase (npt2) promoter inserted into Tn5 suicide plasmid vectors. One A. brasilense exconjugant, showing a steady and strong fluorescence following irradiation with 365-nm UV light was characterized in detail. This strain, A. brasilense 8-I-gfp showed increased N(2)-fixation of approximately threefold, up to a twofold increase in exopolysaccharide production, and a significant decrease in indole-3-acetic acid and poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate production over the parental strain. Sequence analysis showed that the Tn5 carrying the gfp gene was inserted in the clpX gene encoding a heat-shock protein. This data is consistent with a model in which the observed physiological changes are a consequence of pleiotropic changes that occur as a consequence of impaired heat shock (stress) protein synthesis. In summary, (i) chromosomally labelled Azospirillum brasilense was obtained carrying either native or mutant gfp genes, (ii) Pleiotropic physiological effects were caused by disruption of the clpX gene as the consequence of the insertion, (iii) a new indole-3-acetic acid-attenuated mutant of A. brasilense producing only 0.25% of the indole-3-acetic acid produced by the wild-type is presented.
