A Mesorhizobium huakuii strain 2020,isolated from a rice-growing field in southern China,contains three indigenous plasmids named p2020a,p2020b and p2020c,respectively.The plasmids were deleted via Tn5-sacB insertion,...A Mesorhizobium huakuii strain 2020,isolated from a rice-growing field in southern China,contains three indigenous plasmids named p2020a,p2020b and p2020c,respectively.The plasmids were deleted via Tn5-sacB insertion,and two cured derivatives were obtained.Interestingly,the mutant 2020D29 curing of p2020c could significantly enhance the capacity of symbiotic nitrogen fixation.But the mutant 2020D8 curing of p2020b lost the ability to nodulate Astragalus sinicus.Furthermore,the third plasmid p2020a could be hardly eliminated,suggesting that some house-keeping genes necessary for strain growth located on this plasmid.Then the Sym plasmid pJB5JI of R.leguminosarum bv.viciae was transferred into 2020 and its cured derivatives.The pot plant test showed that the ability of competition and symbiotic nitrogen fixation of transconjugant 2020-137(pJB5JI)was increased evidently in con-trast to 2020.pJB5JI could not restore the ability of 2020D8 to nodulate Astragalus sinicus.2020D8-8(pJB5JI)could form ineffective nodules on peas,which implied that the symbiotic plasmid pJB5JI could express its function at the chromosomal background of Mesorhizobium huakuii 2020.The plas-mid stability was checked in transconjugants under free-living and during symbiosis.The results indi-cated that pJB5JI failed to be detected in some nodule isolates.That Km resistance gene could be am-plified from all transconjugants and nodule isolates suggested that pJB5JI was fully or partially inte-grated into the chromosome of recipients.展开更多
Mesorhizobium huakuii strain 7653R harbored two indigenous plasmids named pMH7653Ra and pMH7653Rb.The larger plasmid pMH7653Rb(symbiotic plasmid)was transferred to M.huakuii HN308SR harboring three plasmids:pMHHN308a,...Mesorhizobium huakuii strain 7653R harbored two indigenous plasmids named pMH7653Ra and pMH7653Rb.The larger plasmid pMH7653Rb(symbiotic plasmid)was transferred to M.huakuii HN308SR harboring three plasmids:pMHHN308a,pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c,and HN3015SR harboring three plasmids:pMHHN3015a,pMHHN3015b and pMHHN3015c by tri-parent mating.Two stable indigenous plasmids,pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c of HN308SR,were co-eliminated due to the introduction of pMH7653Rb,and the transconjugant was named HN308SRN14.The results implied that pMH7653Rb and pMHHN308b,pMHHN308c were incompatible and might have been ascribed to the same incompatible group.The plasmid profiles of transconjugant HN3015SRN14 showed that the second largest plasmid pMHHN3015b of HN3015SR was cured due to the introduction of pMH7653Rb.The results also implied that pMH7653Rb and pMHHN3015b were incompatible.Results from plant nodulation tests showed that pMH7653Rb could only maintain the nodulation ability in transconjugant HN308SRN14 and its nodule number was more than that of wild strain HN308SR,but could not replace the nitrogen fixation effect of pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c.The plasmid cured mutant HN308SRN14D harboring only pMHHN308a formed null nodules that demonstrated pMHHN308a was relevant to nodulation ability.HN3015SRN14 harboring pMH7653Rb,pMHHN3015a and pMHHN3015c formed null nodules while HN3015SRN14D containing pMHHN3015a and pMHHN3015c lost the nodulation ability.The plasmid replication repC-like gene sequences were detected by a polymerase chain reaction from 7653R,HN308,HN3015,HN308SRN14 and HN3015SRN14.The repC gene sequence similarities of the strains tested attained 99%.展开更多
