Project description:Agrobacterium deltaense strain CNPSo 3391 was isolated from a soybean nodule in Mozambique. Its genome size was estimated at 4,926,588 bp. This isolate carries several coding sequences for stress tolerance, but no identifiable nodulation or virulence genes. Possible ecological roles of bacteria isolated from legume nodules and closely related to Agrobacterium are discussed.
Project description:Purpose:first,we want to find the genes revelant to curdlan synthesis and oxygen regulation, second, we want to research the function of fnrN gene in Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749. Method: samples of cell growth phase, curdlan-producing phase (normoxia) and curdlan-producing phase (micro-oxygen treated) in both Agrobacterium sp. ATCC 31749 wild strain and ΔfnrN strain were collectecd to extract mRNA. Each sample was treated in duplicate. The softwares we used include fastqc, trimmomatic, TopHat2 and Cufflinks. Illumina Hiseq4000 was used to complete the research.
