摘要
A motility revertant of a Bradyrhizobium japonicum ndvB mutant was isolated and characterized. The ndvB mutants of B. japonicum have been reported to be osmotically sensitive, as well as defective in motility, periplasmic cyclic β-(1→3), (1→6)-D-glucan synthesis, and symbiosis with soybean. The motility revertant was restored for osmotic tolerance but not for cyclic β-glucan production or effective symbiosis. These results support our hypothesis that cyclic β-glucans have an important role in symbiosis—the suppression of a plant defense response—in addition to their role in periplasmic osmoprotection.
