Abstract excerpt
Previously, we identified two genes in Bradyrhizobium japonicum (ndvB, ndvC) that are required for cyclic beta-(1 --> 3),(1 --> 6)-D-glucan synthesis and successful symbiotic interaction with soybean (Glycine max). In this study, we report a new open reading frame (ORF1) located in the intergenic region between ndvB and ndvC, which is essential for beta-glucan synthesis and effective nodulation of G. max. This...
