Aim:
The genus Fusarium comprises plant pathogenic species with agricultural relevance. Fusarium oxysporum causes tomato wilt disease with significant production losses. The use of agrochemicals to control the Fusarium wilt of tomato is not environmentally friendly. Bacillus species, as biocontrol agents, provide a safe and sustainable means to co...
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by rhizobacteria have been proven to stimulate plant growth during germination and seedling stages. However, the modulating effect of bacterial volatiles on the germination of seeds subjected to heavy metal stress is scarcely studied. In this work, the ability of volatiles released by Bacillus sp. MH778713...
In northern Mexico, aridity, salinity and high temperatures limit areas that can be cultivated. To investigate the nature of nitrogen-fixing symbionts of Phaseolus filiformis, an adapted wild bean species native to this region, their phylogenies were inferred by MLSA. Most rhizobia recovered belong to the proposed new species Ensifer aridi. Phyloge...
Heavy metal accumulation in mesquite trees (Prosopis laevigata) growing in aluminum, titanium, chromium and zirconium-polluted soils of a semi-arid region in Mexico was investigated using wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis. The results showed that P. laevigata trees can hyper accumulate up to 4100 mg/kg of Al, 14000 mg/kg of Fe, 1600...
Background
Nitrogen fixing bacteria isolated from hot arid areas in Asia, Africa and America but from diverse leguminous plants have been recently identified as belonging to a possible new species of Ensifer (Sinorhizobium). In this study, 6 strains belonging to this new clade were compared with Ensifer species at the genome-wide level. Their capac...
Prosopis laevigata (mesquite) plants can tolerate drought, thermal stress, alkalinity, salinity, and toxicity of heavy metals, making them attractive for phytoremediation. Nonetheless, most of these features have been studied under controlled laboratory conditions. In this work, the bioaccumulation of heavy metals in a free-living population of P....
Anthropogenic activities and the inadequate disposal of their waste have caused the accumulation of heavy metals in the soil. Chromium VI is one of the most toxic heavy metals for the environment, which causes changes in the gene expression of different plant species. Some of them have been able to adapt to this polluted environment using strategie...
Heavy metals are defined as metals having an atomic number greater than 20 and characterized by an atomic density above 5 g·cm-3. Heavy metals are naturally found in the Earth's crust, but they are present in many aspects of modern life. Heavy metals are toxic to all different life forms if their concentration is high in organisms. Heavy metals exh...
Antibiotics are a group of medicines that are used to treat infections caused by bacteria and parasites. Antibiotic
resistance is generated by the incorrect use, or overused, of these compounds to treat bacterial infections.
When antimicrobial drugs are used intensively, bacteria adapts and are capable for growing in the presence
of popularly presc...
Los antibióticos son un grupo de medicamentos que son utilizados para el control de infecciones causadas por bacterias y parásitos. La resistencia a los antibióticos es originada por un mal uso en el tratamiento de las infecciones, y se produce cuando los microorganismos logran adaptarse y crecer en presencia de medicamentos que alguna vez los impa...

Legumes in the genus A eschynomene form nitrogen‐fixing root nodules in association with B radyrhizobium strains. Several aquatic and subaquatic species have the additional capacity to form stem nodules, and some of them can symbiotically interact with specific strains that do not produce the common Nod factors synthesized by all other rhizobia. Th...
Sustainability is the biggest challenge faced by Mexico against a backdrop of bleak environmental degradation. It is necessary to acquire knowledge and to implement environment-friendly alternatives in order to preserve and maintain the natural resources of the country, a key factor in improving the profitability of agricultural production. In natu...
Modern agricultural production requires high amounts of agrochemical derivatives of petroleum. Their production and use contaminate the atmosphere, generating damage to health of living beings. An alternative to the exclusive use of agrochemicals, while maintaining a profitable agricultural production and aiming for sustainable management, is the a...
Tropical aquatic legumes of the genus Aeschynomene are unique in that they can be stem-nodulated by photosynthetic bradyrhizobia. Moreover, a recent study demonstrated that two Aeschynomene indica symbionts lack canonical nod genes, thereby raising questions about the distribution of such atypical symbioses among rhizobial-legume interactions. Popu...
Bacterial isolates from maize plants showing a leaf spot disease were identified through molecular and phenotypic traits,
showing that the isolates belong to Pantoea ananatis. Maize plants inoculated with those isolates showed a pathogenic reaction. This is the first report of a disease of Mexican
maize caused by P. ananatis.

Contamination of soil with hydrocarbons occurs frequently and organic material, such as sludge, is often applied to accelerate their dissipation. Little is known, however, how sludge characteristics affect removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from alkaline-saline soil. Soil of the former lake Texcoco with pH 9 and electrolytic conduct...
SUMMARY Most legumes establish mutualistic symbiotic relationships with atmospheric nitrogen-fixing bacteria (rhizobia), giving origin to nod- ules. Nodules exhibit natural or induced aging which coincides with the drop in nitrogenase activity at the flowering period or at the pod filling stage. In this research, the onset of nodule senescence (NS)...
We studied morphological changes over time by nodules formed on the root system of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Two cultivars, Bayomex and Cacahuate 72 with growth habit Type I and the Rhizobium etli strain CE-3 were used. The results showed the collapse of the infected zone, degradation of the cell walls and membranes,
changes in the n...

Leguminosae, the third largest family of angiosperms, are of major agricultural, ecological and economic importance. Several
recent studies have clarified the taxonomic and phylogenetic relationships among the 19,400 species that constitute this family
and traced the “road map of legume diversity” (Doyle and Lückow, 2003).
Despite the abundance and diversity of timber tree legumes in the West African rainforest, their ability to form nitrogen-fixing nodules in symbiosis with rhizobia, and their response to rhizobial inoculation, remain poorly documented. In the first part of this study the occurrence of nodulation was determined in 156 leguminous species growing in s...
The nuclear ITS region of 19 species of Alnus was amplified and sequenced. The inferred molecular phylogeny shows that all species of the genus Alnus form a monophyletic group close to Betula and that the fundamental dichotomy within the genus lies between the subgenera Alnaster and Gymnothyrsus, sensu Murai (1964). The subgenus Alnaster appears to...
In an extension of a previous small-scale test to assess the use of 16S-23S rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences for rapid grouping of bradyrhizobia, we have sequenced the ITS region of 32 isolates of Bradyrhizobium that had previously been studied using AFLP and DNA-DNA hybridizations. We also included representatives of Afipia and Rho...
