Abstract excerpt
Bradyrhizobium japonicum nod gene expression was previously shown to be population density dependent. Induction of the nod genes is highest at low culture density and repressed at high population densities. This repression involves both NolA and NodD2 and is mediated by an extracellular factor found in B. japonicum conditioned medium. NolA and NodD2 expression is maximal at high population densities. We...
