Rhizobia are one of the most important and best studied groups of bacterial symbionts. They
are defined by their ability to establish nitrogen-fixing intracellular infections within plant …

Rhizobia are soil proteobacteria able to engage in a nitrogen-fixing symbiotic interaction
with legumes that involves the rhizobial infection of roots and the bacterial invasion of new …

Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) fredii (S. fredii) is a rhizobial species exhibiting a remarkably broad
nodulation host-range. Thus, S. fredii is able to effectively nodulate dozens of different …

Key message Compatible interaction between rhizobial Nod factors and host receptors
enables initial recognition and signaling events during legume-rhizobia symbiosis. Abstract …

Some pathogenic or symbiotic Gram-negative bacteria can manipulate the ubiquitination
system of the eukaryotic host cell using a variety of strategies. Members of the genera …

Introduction The establishment of the rhizobium-legume nitrogen-fixing symbiosis relies on
the interchange of molecular signals between the two symbionts. We have previously …

Bacteria can spread on surfaces to colonize new environments and access more resources.
Rhizobia, a group of α-and β-Proteobacteria, establish nitrogen-fixing symbioses with …

Prokaryotes benefit from having accessory genes, but it is unclear how accessory genes can
be linked with the core regulatory network when developing adaptations to new niches …

Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 is a rhizobial soybean symbiont that exhibits an extremely
broad host-range. Flavonoids exuded by legume roots induce the expression of rhizobial …

Mutualism between bacteria and eukaryotes has essential roles in the history of life, but the
evolution of their compatibility is poorly understood. Here we show that different …
