Bradyrhizobium japonicum forms a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with soybean. Signaling events, such as production of flavonoids and Nod factor, initiate the interaction, leading to formation of specialized root organs called nodules. A B. japonicum...
As methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) hospitalizations keep increasing, the understanding of the characteristics that make one isolate more successful over another is paramount. Strain variations among Staphylococcus aureus observed...
Rhizobium -- Physiology. Rhizobium -- Genetics. Plants -- Effect of iron on.
Iron is essential in the agriculturally important symbiosis between Bradyrhizobium japonicum and soybean. Studying iron uptake in B. japonicum presents unique challenges in that the organism is found in two very different environments, free living...
