This list of sequenced eubacterial genomes contains most of the eubacteria known to have publicly available complete genome sequences.Most of these sequences have been placed in the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration, a public database which can be searched [1] on the web.
Plants live in association with diverse microbial consortia. These microbes, referred to as the plant's microbiota, live both inside (the endosphere) and outside (the episphere) of plant tissues, and play important roles in the ecology and physiology of plants. [5] "The core plant microbiome is thought to comprise keystone microbial taxa that ...
Bacterial genes may be retained within the plant, [6] and sweet potato for instance has retained and actively expresses A. rhizogenes genes which are not present in other members of its genus. [7] The hairy roots are grown in vitro in bioreactors to study their soil interaction with other pathogens like fungi and nematodes.
The root microbiome (also called rhizosphere microbiome) is the dynamic community of microorganisms associated with plant roots. [1] Because they are rich in a variety of carbon compounds, plant roots provide unique environments for a diverse assemblage of soil microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and archaea.
The ability of Agrobacterium to transfer genes to plants and fungi is used in biotechnology, in particular, genetic engineering for plant improvement. Genomes of plants and fungi can be engineered by use of Agrobacterium for the delivery of sequences hosted in T-DNA binary vectors. A modified Ti or Ri plasmid can be used.
Physcomitrella patens, moss increasingly used for studies on development and molecular evolution of plants. [20] It is so far the only non-vascular plant(and so the only "primitive" plant) with its genome completely sequenced. [20] Moreover, it is currently the only land plant with efficient gene targeting that enables gene knockout. [21]
The Rhizobia-Legume symbiosis (bacteria-plant endosymbiosis) is a prime example of this modality. [21] The Rhizobia-legume symbiotic relationship is important for processes such as the formation of root nodules. It starts with flavonoids released by the legume host, which causes the rhizobia species (endosymbiont) to activate its Nod genes. [21]
