A mutation that blocks exopolysaccharide synthesis prevents nodulation of peas by Rhizobium leguminosarum but not of beans by R. phaseoli and is corrected by cloned DNA from Rhizobium or the phytopathogen Xanthomonas

“…Functions include homologs of the OmpA protein (COG2197), which is required for adhesion to both mammalian and fish epithelial cells in a range of Proteobacteria (23,24), Listeria internalin-like proteins, which enhance attachment and biofilm formation (25,26), and the widespread colonization island, which is essential for biofilm formation, colonization, and pathogenesis in a range of bacteria (27). Proteins related to the production and excretion of galactoglycan, or exopolysaccharide II, were more abundant in the U. australis community, and apart from forming part of the biofilm matrix, is also essential for the establishment and maintenance of symbiosis in several Rhizobium strains (28)(29)(30)(31)(32). GGDEF and EAL domain proteins, which are involved in the production and degradation, respectively, of bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic dimeric GMP (cyclic-di-GMP), were also detected at a higher abundance (33,34).…”

“…Studies using GFP-marked S. meliloti revealed that succinoglycan is required early in the invasion process, as mutants unable to synthesize succinoglycan are enclosed in CCRH, but do not enable infection thread formation. Acidic exopolysaccharides now are known to be required for a number of other rhizobia to establish a symbiosis (4)(5)(6).…”
