Query: NC_010623:1961685 Burkholderia phymatum STM815 chromosome 2, complete sequence
Lineage: Burkholderia phymatum; Burkholderia; Burkholderiaceae; Burkholderiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from a root nodule of Machaerium lunatum in French Guiana. This species forms a symbiotic relationship with tropical legumes, where it is involved with nirogen fixation in the root nodules.
Subject: NC_012587:2326000 Rhizobium sp. NGR234, complete genome
Lineage: Sinorhizobium fredii; Sinorhizobium; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism, much like other Rhizobia, forms a symbiotic relationship with a leguminous plant, such as soybean, cowpea or pigeon pea. Expression of nodulation genes results in production of a nodulation signal which the plant cell recognizes inducing root nodule formation. The plant cell provides carbon compounds for the bacterium to grow on.
