Genomic, genetic and structural analysis of pyoverdine-mediated iron acquisition in the plant growth-promoting bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescensSBW25 (2008)

Moon, Christina D, Zhang, Xue-Xian, Matthijs, Sandra, Schäfer, Mathias, Budzikiewicz, Herbert, Rainey, Paul B

Abstract Background Pyoverdines (PVDs) are high affinity siderophores, for which the molecular mechanisms of biosynthesis, uptake and regulation have been extensively studied in Pseudomonas...

Genetic characterization of pspencoding the DING protein in Pseudomonas fluorescensSBW25 (2007)

Zhang, Xue-Xian, Scott, Ken, Meffin, Rebecca, Rainey, Paul B

Abstract Background DING proteins constitute a conserved and broadly distributed set of proteins found in bacteria, fungi, plants and animals (including humans). Characterization of DING proteins...

The Common Nodulation Genes of Astragalus sinicus Rhizobia Are Conserved despite Chromosomal Diversity

Zhang, Xue-Xian, Turner, Sarah L., Guo, Xian-Wu, Yang, Hui-Jun, Debellé, Frédéric, Yang, Guo-Ping, ...

The nodulation genes of Mesorhizobium sp. (Astragalus sinicus) strain 7653R were cloned by functional complementation of Sinorhizobium meliloti nod mutants. The common nod genes, nodD, nodA, and...

Symbiotic Plasmid Rearrangement in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae VF39SM

Zhang, Xue-Xian, Kosier, Bob, Priefer, Ursula B.

A rearrangement between the symbiotic plasmid (pRleVF39d) and a nonsymbiotic plasmid (pRleVF39b) in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae VF39 was observed. The rearranged derivative showed the same...

Genetic Analysis of the Histidine Utilization (hut) Genes in Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25

Zhang, Xue-Xian, Rainey, Paul B.

The histidine utilization (hut) locus of Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 confers the ability to utilize histidine as a sole carbon and nitrogen source. Genetic analysis using a combination of...

Dual Involvement of CbrAB and NtrBC in the Regulation of Histidine Utilization in Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25

Zhang, Xue-Xian, Rainey, Paul B.

Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 is capable of growing on histidine as a sole source of carbon and/or nitrogen. Previous work showed that the two-component regulatory system CbrAB is required for...

Mutational activation of niche-specific genes provides insight into regulatory networks and bacterial function in a complex environment

Giddens, Stephen R., Jackson, Robert W., Moon, Christina D., Jacobs, Michael A., Zhang, Xue-Xian, Gehrig, Stefanie M., ...

The genome of the plant-colonizing bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 harbors a subset of genes that are expressed specifically on plant surfaces. The function of these genes is central to the...
