Project description:Arctic Mesorhizobium strain N33 was isolated from nodules of the Oxytropis arctobia in Canada’s eastern Arctic. This symbiotic bacterium can grow from 0 to 30°C, is one of the best known cold-adapted rhizobia, and can fix nitrogen at ~10°C. Here, the key molecular mechanisms of cold adaptation were investigated by determining changes in transcript profiles when cells were treated under eight different temperature conditions, including both sustained and transient cold treatments compared with cells grown at room temperature.
Project description:Analysis of gene expression changes of Mesorhizobium alhagi CCNWXJ12-2 under high salt stress. Mesorhizobium alhagi CCNWXJ12-2 is isolated from Alhagi sparsifolia in northwest of China.
Project description:Mesorhizobium metallidurans STM 2683 and Mesorhizobium sp. strain STM 4661 were isolated from nodules of the metallicolous legume Anthyllis vulneraria from distant mining spoils. They tolerate unusually high zinc and cadmium concentrations as compared to other mesorhizobia. This work aims to study the gene expression profiles associated with zinc or cadmium exposure and to identify genes involved in metal tolerance in these two metallicolous Mesorhizobium strains of interest for mine phytostabilization purposes.

Mesorhizobium metallidurans STM 2683 and Mesorhizobium sp. strain STM 4661 with three treatments (control, Zn and Cd).
Project description:Analysis of gene expression changes of Mesorhizobium alhagi CCNWXJ12-2 under high salt stress. Mesorhizobium alhagi CCNWXJ12-2 is isolated from Alhagi sparsifolia in northwest of China. Total RNA extracted from Mesorhizobium alhagi CCNWXJ12-2 growing in TY medium containing 0.4 M NaCl and 0 M NaCl.
Project description:Microarray transcriptomic analysis was carried out on Lotus japonicus plants grown either under purely symbiotic conditions (Mesorhizobium loti) or under non-symbiotic conditions (no inoculation and provided with NH4NO3).
Project description:We analysed the transcriptomic response by RNAseq of 5 Mesorhizobium strains with different tolerance to the presence of salt (NaCl) in their liquid culture medium (medium used TY- Tryptone Yeast Extract).
