A genomic DNA fragment involved in magnetosome synthesis was isolated from Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-I through mini-Tn5 transposon mutagenesis. The DNA fragment flanking transposon from the genomic DNA of a non-magnetic ...

Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines (Xag) is the causal agent at bacterial pustule disease of soybeans. A non-¬pathogenic mutant of Xag (M715) was constructed employing transposon mutagenesis which showed similar epiphytic ...

Twenty five indigenous strains of Bradyrhizobirrm jnponicum were screened employing acid-Alaminium media, in whkh 50 pM AI(K Al (S04)2.12H20) was added and pH adjusted to pH 4.5. Nine strains which are acid tolerance grew ...

Magnetic bacteria orient and navigate along geomagnetic field lines and are widely distributed in freshwater and marine habitat. The ability of these bacteria to respond to magnetic fields is based on the presence of ...

Acid-aluminium sensitive mutants of symbiotic bacterium Bradyrhizobium japonicum BJ11 (designated as AAS11) and KDR15 (designated as AAS15) were constructed by mini-Tn5 transposon mutagenesis to study genes involved in ...

A rapid and simple method to amplify genomic DNA sequences flanking mini-Tn5 transposon insertion was developed. This technique can be used to determine the location and orientation of the transposon insertion within genomic ...

Antifungi-producing rhizobacteria have been regognize playing an important role in plant desease supression. In our laboratory, 13 indigenous soybean rhizobacteria Pseudomonas sp. that showed strong growth inhibition of ...
