Project description:Mesorhizobium huakuii 7653R is an α-proteobacterium that occurs either in a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with its host plant, A. sinicus, or free-living in the soil. We performed RNA-Seq on free-living cells grown in rich media and in bacteroids isolated from root nodules to understand how M. huakuii 7653R responds to alterations in its environment and to the physiological changes that occur during bacteroid differentiation. Understand how M. huakuii 7653R responds to alterations in its environment and to the physiological changes that occur during bacteroid differentiation.

Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Bacteroids compared to the free-living cells. Understand how M. huakuii 7653R responds to alterations in its environment and to the physiological changes that occur during bacteroid differentiation.
