Sinorhizobium meliloti nfe (Nodulation Formation Efficiency) Genes Exhibit Temporal and Spatial Expression Patterns Similar to Those of Genes Involved in Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation
The nfe genes (nfeA, nfeB, and nfeD) are involved in the nodulation efficiency and competitiveness of the Sinorhizobium meliloti strain GR4 on alfalfa roots. The nfeA and nfeB genes are preceded by functional nif consensus sequences and NifA binding motifs. Here, we determined the temporal and spati...
