Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis of Salt-Tolerance-Related Genes in Root-Nodule Bacteria Species <i>Sinorhizobium meliloti</i>

A molecular phylogenetic analysis of salt-tolerance-related genes was carried out using complete genome sequencing data available for 26 <i>Sinorhizobium meliloti</i> strains and for 25 bacterial strains belonging to 17 genera. It was revealed that the genes of the first and the second s...

description A molecular phylogenetic analysis of salt-tolerance-related genes was carried out using complete genome sequencing data available for 26 <i>Sinorhizobium meliloti</i> strains and for 25 bacterial strains belonging to 17 genera. It was revealed that the genes of the first and the second stages of the response to salt stress (<i>aqp</i>Z, <i>trk</i>H, and <i>trk</i>A, and <i>bet</i>ICBA) have copies of many of the above- indicated genes on pSymA. Data obtained can provide evidence that this replicon, known to be essential for nitrogen fixation rhizobia activity, also has a significant role in the formation of a stress-related gene pool. The closest putative phylogenetic relatives were identified for all 14 tested genes and these are the first insights into the evolutionary pathways for the formation of a stress-related gene pool in root nodule nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
