The nodD, one of those nod genes, is an autoregulatory gene, which controls the expressions of all the rest nod genes in the展开更多

On the basis of 113 physiological and biochemical characteristics, the isolates were clustered into three groups. One isolate CCNWGX035 was found to have high tolerance to NaC1, pH, and temperature. By sequencing the 16S rDNA, isolate CCNWGX035 was placed in genus Mesorhizobium. Nodulation tests demonstrated that the isolate not only formed nitrogen-fixing nodules on its original host plant Glyeyrrhiza glabra, but also on Sophora vieiifolia, Lotus cornieulatus, Trifolium repens, Melilotus suaveolens, and Sophora alopecuroides. On the basis of sequence analysis of the nodA gene, isolate CCNWGX035 was closely related to strains of the genus Mesorhizobium, exhibiting some novel characteristics of root nodule bacteria.展开更多
