Partners in space: Discordant population structure between legume hosts and Rhizobium symbionts in their native range
… these systems. Here we study the model rhizobium Ensifer meliloti using a hierarchically structured sample of 191 strains from 21 sites in the native range and compare its population genetic structure to that of its host plant Medicago truncatula. We find that two of the three elements of the …

The nature of host plant recruitment by the sensory repertoire of Sinorhizobium meliloti
Sinorhizobium meliloti (Ensifer meliloti) is a bacterium that will exist saprotrophically in the soil and rhizosphere or as a differentiated bacteroid inside root nodules of the legume genera Medicago, Melilotus, and Trigonella. It exists in symbiosis when inside a host plant and will fix gaseous …

Elucidation of the Specificity of S. meliloti Chemoreceptors for Host Derived Attractants
The bacterium Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) meliloti is a member of the Rhizobiaceae family and can enter a mutualistic, diazotrophic relationship with most plants of the genera Medicago, Melilotus, and Trigonella. Medicago sativa (alfalfa) is an agriculturally important legume that hosts S. meliloti and …

The development of Sinorhizobium meliloti and Deinococcus radiodurans as chassis for synthetic biology applications
… nitrogen-fixing plant symbiont, Sinorhizobium meliloti, and the polyextremophile, Deinococcus radiodurans. While some progress has been made toward the development of these chassis, further strain and tool developments are required to unlock their full potential. Here, I present the expansion …
