Organization of nifH and nifD genes in Nostoc commune UTEX 584
… of fixing nitrogen. Biotinylated nifH and nifD gene probes from Azotobacter vinelandii (a gift from Dr. Dennis Dean) hybridized to nifH and nifD sequences isolated from Nostoc commune UTEX 584. This result supports the view that the nitrogenase structural proteins and their genes are highly …

The influence of long-term nitrogen fertilization on symbiosis and metabolism in the legume-rhizobium mutualism
… similarity between pSym genes. We also find that nifD has a unique evolutionary history that explains much of the variation in partner quality, and our results implicate MoFe subunit interaction sites in the evolution of less-mutualistic rhizobia. Second, I determined metabolic fingerprints from …

Characterization of the nifUHD cluster and a new myoglobin-like gene from Nostoc commune UTEX 584
… exact locations of the <i>nifU, nifH</i>, and <i>nifD</i> genes and identified two potential stem loop structures, a direct repeat, and an ORF that codes for a protein with a predicted amino acid sequence similar to that of myoglobin from <i>Paramecium caudatum</i>. The <i>N. commune</i> UTEX 584 …

Characterization of a major cluster of genes involved in nitrogen fixation and another required for indole-3-acetic acid biosynthesis in the sugarcane endophyte, Acetobacter diazotrophicus
… by inserting a chloramphenicol cassette into nifD region. Plant inoculation experiments using mutant strains also demonstrated that A. diazotrophicus could stimulate plant growth regardless of N availability, as evidenced by the significant growth difference between plants inoculated with wild …
