Polyhydroxyalkanoate synthesis by Sinorhizobium meliloti drives a host-specific collapse in symbiosis with Medicago sativa
Abstract
Naturally occurring root-nodule bacteria (rhizobia) vary substantially in their effectiveness at promoting growth of different plant hosts via symbiotic nitrogen fixation. These variations in rhizobial partner quality have important implications for the productivity of nitrogen-fixing symbioses in natural and agricultural ecosystems, yet we have a limited understanding of the genetic basis for this variation. In a case of host-specific …
