bacteroid's Usage Examples:

"The synthesis of aspartic acid in Rhizobium lupini bacteroids".

ammonia, and which is involved in the transport of fixed nitrogen from bacteroids to plant cells in symbiotic nitrogen metabolism.

"Reassessment of major products of N2 fixation by bacteroids from soybean root nodules".

However, in some cases a symbiosome may house several bacteroids.

The bacteria develop into bacteroids within newly formed root nodules and perform nitrogen fixation for the.

and begin terminally differentiating into symbiotic, nitrogen-fixing bacteroids.

suggesting the induction of this sRNAs during bacterial infection and/or bacteroid differentiation.

Rhizobia bacteroids and plants.

phaeobacteroides Pfennig 1968 emend.

Within the nodule cells bacteria undergo a morphology differentiation to bacteroid, their endosymbiotic nitrogen-fixing competent form.

These traits include enhanced competitive nodulation, nodule development, intracellular infection, and bacteroid persistence.

Inside the nodule, the bacteria differentiate morphologically into bacteroids and fix atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, using the enzyme nitrogenase.

as a breakdown product of sucrose is the direct carbon source for the bacteroid.
