Molecular diversity of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown with inoculum from polluted urban soils.
ABSTRACT The establishment and growth of trees can be compromised by soil contamination which can reduce populations of key microbial symbionts. We describe the colonisation of grey alder (Alnus incana) by Frankia from 10 urban soils with varying degrees of organic and inorganic pollution. Principal components analysis (PCA) of soil chemical profiles showed a separation of remediated and unreme...
متن کاملA freeze-fracture electron microscopic study of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown at three oxygen tensions
ABEYSEKERA, R. M., NEWCOMB, W . , SILVESTER, W. B., and TORREY, J. G. 1990. A freeze-fracture electron microscopic study of Frankia in root nodules of Alnus incana grown at three oxygen tensions. Can. J. Microbiol. 36: 97-108. Nodulated plants of Alnus incana ssp. rugosa and ssp. incana were grown with the roots exposed to 5,21, and 40 kPa 02. The nodules were studied by freeze-fracture transmi...
متن کاملNatural diversity of Frankia strains in actinorhizal root nodules from promiscuous hosts in the family Myricaceae.
Actinorhizal plants invade nitrogen-poor soils because of their ability to form root nodule symbioses with N(2)-fixing actinomycetes known as Frankia. Frankia strains are difficult to isolate, so the diversity of strains inhabiting nodules in nature is not known. To address this problem, we have used the variability in bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences amplified from root nodules as a means to ...
متن کاملDiversity of frankia strains in root nodules of plants from the families elaeagnaceae and rhamnaceae
Partial 16S ribosomal DNAs (rDNAs) were PCR amplified and sequenced from Frankia strains living in root nodules of plants belonging to the families Elaeagnaceae and Rhamnaceae, including Colletia hystrix, Elaeagnus angustifolia, an unidentified Elaeagnus sp., Talguenea quinquenervia, and Trevoa trinervis. Nearly full-length 16S rDNAs were sequenced from strains of Frankia living in nodules of C...
متن کاملNitrogenase Activity and Amounts of Nitrogenase Proteins in a Frankia-Alnus incana Symbiosis Subjected to Darkness.
Effects of prolonged darkness on nitrogenase activity in vivo, nitrogenase activity in vitro, and the amounts of nitrogenase proteins were studied in symbiotic Frankia. Plants of Alnus incana (L.) Moench in symbiosis with a local source of Frankia were grown for 9 to 10 weeks in an 18/6 hour light/darkness cycle. After 12 hours of a light period, the plants were exposed to darkness for up to 40...
