Azospirillum spp . metabolize [ 17 , 17 -
; Azospirillum spp. are endophytic bacteria with beneficial effects on cereals — effects partially attributed to gibberellin production by the microorganisms. Azospirillum lipoferum and Azospirillum brasilense inoculated to rice dy mutant reversed dwarfism in seedlings incubated with [17,17-H2]GA20 with formation of [17,17H2]GA1, showing the in vivo capacity to perform the 3 -hydroxylation. Whe...
متن کاملAmmonium (methylammonium) transport by Azospirillum spp
In recent years soil bacteria of the genus Azospirillum found increasing biological and ecological interest because of their ability to microaerobically fix N 2 and to live in close association with plant roots, stimulating growth of nitrogenlimited plants [1-5]. The physiology of N 2 fixation, especially its repression by N H + , has been studied extensively [6-9]. The question, however, how N...
متن کاملQuantification of Azospirillum brasilense FP2 Bacteria in Wheat Roots by Strain-Specific Quantitative PCR.
Azospirillum is a rhizobacterial genus containing plant growth-promoting species associated with different crops worldwide. Azospirillum brasilense strains exhibit a growth-promoting effect by means of phytohormone production and possibly by N2 fixation. However, one of the most important factors for achieving an increase in crop yield by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria is the survival of ...
متن کاملCell-surface hydrophobicity and cell-surface charge of Azospirillum spp
The cell-surface charge and cell-surface hydrophobicity of 10 strains of Azospirillum spp. were evaluated by the aqueous, two-polymer phase partitioning assay. Azospirillum spp. had moderate cell-surface hydrophobicity and charge, lower than known values for human pathogens. The hydrophobicity and charge values were higher in solid than in liquid media. A general pattern of modifying hydrophobi...
متن کاملRegulation of nitrogenase activity by ammonium chloride in Azospirillum spp.
Ammonium chloride (greater than or equal to 0.05 mM) effectively and reversibly inhibited the nitrogenase activity of Azospirillum brasilense, Azospirillum lipoferum and Azospirillum amazonense. The glutamine synthetase inhibitor L-methionine-DL- sulfoximine abolished this "switch-off" in A. lipoferum and A. brasilense, but not in A. amazonense. Azaserine, an inhibitor of glutamate synthase, in...
