근류형성에 의한 생물학적 질소고정기능을 갖는 여러종의 근류균을 대상으로 분자생물학적 계통 분류의 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 Azorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium, Sinorhizobium 속의 33 균주에 대한 ITS 영역의 염기서열을 이용한 계통 분류가 이루어 졌다. 이들 균주중 대부분의 균주는 한 종류의 ITS 영역을 가지는 반면, 일부균주는 2개의 서로 다른 ITS 염기서열을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 실험에 이용된 모든 균주들간의 ITS 영역의 염기서열 상동성은 28 - 95%로 매우 변이폭가 컸으며, 이들 염기서열의 계통 분석에 의하면 4가지 그룹으로 구분되었다. Sinorhizobium 속의 모든 균주 및 Rhizobium giardinii 는 그룹 I으로 구분되었다 그룹 II는 R. giardinii를 제외한 모든 Rhizibium 속의 균주를 포함하고 있으며, 계통수의 topology는 매우 불안정한 것으로 나타났다. 특히, R. radiobacter와 R. rubi는 계통분류학적 위치가 불명확한 것으로 나타났다. Bradyrhizobium 속의 균주는 Azorhizobium caulinodans 와 함께 그룹 III로 구분되었고, 그룹 IV는 Mesorhizobium 속의 균주로 이루어 ㅈ다. 특히, Mesorhizobium 속균주의 ITS 영역의 염기서열 상동성이 높게 나타났다.

Since there could be more and rather various diazotrophs in rhizosphere of wild crops than those in rhizosphere of cultivars, some wild gramineous crops grown in Korea were collected for isolating nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Six diazotrophs were purified from their roots using nitrogen-free media. The isolated bacteria were partially identified as 4 genera by 16S rDNA sequence analysis: Stenotrophomonas sp., Bosea sp., Klebsiella sp., and Azorhizobium sp. By PCR amplification and sequence analysis, DNA fragments extracted from all isolates turned out to have an individual nifH homologous gene. Five isolates (KNUC163, KNUC165, KNUC169, KNUC170, and KNUC171) showed auxin activity and four isolates (KNUC163, KNUC166, KNUC170, and KNUC171) produced siderophores. Especially,3 strains of S. maltophilia showed both auxin and siderophore activities. In conclusion, the isolated nitrogen-fixing bacteria might have capabilities for plant growth promotion.

Sinorhizobium sp. strain MUS10 forms nitrogen-fixing stem nodules on Sesbania rostrata, a tropical green manure crop. In this study, the ultrastructural events associated with the formation of stem nodules were investigated. Sinorhizobium sp. strain MUS10 entered the host tissue through cracks created by the emerging adventitious root primordia and multiplied within the intercellular spaces. During early phases of infection, host cells adjacent to invading bacteria revealed cellular damage that is typical of hypersensitive reactions, while the cells at the inner cortex exhibited meristematic activity. Infection threads were numerous in S-day-old nodules and often were associated with the host cell wall. In several cases, more than one infection thread was found in individual cells. The junction at which the host cell walls converged was often enlarged due to fusion of intracellular branches of infection threads resulting in large infection pockets. The infection threads were made up of a homogeneous, amorphous matrix that enclosed the bacteria. Several finger-like projections were seen radiating from these enlarged infection threads and were delineated from the host cytoplasm by the plasma membrane. As in Azorhizobium caulinodans induced root nodules, the release of Sinorhizobia from the infection threads into the plant cells appears to be mediated by 'infection droplets'. A 15-day­old Sesbania stem nodule revealed typical ultrastructure features of a determinate nodule, containing several bacterioids within symbiosomes.
