What is Rhizobium?
![Page 3: Rhizobium Microbiology Science Learning Educative Presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5576d2bed8b42a87588b4645/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Rhizobium are symbiotic diazotrophs (prokaryotic organisms that carry out dinitrogenfixation) that form a endoymbioticassociation with legumes.

• Rhizobium is a genus of Gram negative Soil Bacteria.
• They are non sporing bacteria.
•Rod shaped cells.0.5-0.9 um x 1.2-3.0 um in size.

WHO DISCOVERED RHIZOBIUM?

Martinus Beijerinck (1851–1931) was one of the great general microbiologists whomade fundamental contributions to microbial ecology and manyother fields. He isolated the aerobic nitrogen-fixing bacteriumBacillus radicicola a root nodule bacterium also capable of fixing nitrogen (later named Rhizobium)

Rhizobium can be found in Root nodules of legumes.
![Page 9: Rhizobium Microbiology Science Learning Educative Presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5576d2bed8b42a87588b4645/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Legumes are herbaceous woody plants that produce seeds in pods; examples of legumes include peas, beans, alfalfa, vetches, clovers, lupines, trefoils, locust, and mimosa. (fabaceae)
It is difficult to isolate rhizobiumfrom the soil..
Rhizobium are predominantly aerobic chemoorganotrophs and grow well in the presence of oxygen and utilize a wide range of relatively simple carbohydrates and amino compounds.

What is Rhizobium’s
Nutrition?
![Page 11: Rhizobium Microbiology Science Learning Educative Presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5576d2bed8b42a87588b4645/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The rhizobia doesn’t grow wellwell on the peptone media used routinely.
Yeast mannitol (YM) is the most generally suitable for their growth.
Optimal growth of most strains occurs at a temperature range of 25-30° C and at a pH of 6.0-7.0
Colonies are white pigmented.Colonies are circular, convex, semi-translucent, raised and mucilaginous.
Despite their usual aerobic metabolism, many strains are able to grow well under microaerophillic conditions at oxygen tensions of less than 0.1 atm.

PROTECTION
OF
RHIZOBIUM
![Page 14: Rhizobium Microbiology Science Learning Educative Presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5576d2bed8b42a87588b4645/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
•Rhizobium is surrounded by a slimy capsule made of exopolysaccharide, which protects it from drying out. And also helps the bacterium stick to root hairs during various stages of its life cycle.
![Page 15: Rhizobium Microbiology Science Learning Educative Presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/5576d2bed8b42a87588b4645/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
•Rhizobium contains nitrogenase, which is irreversibly damaged by exposure to oxygen.
But Rhizobium is aerobic and requires large amount of energy for Nitrogen fixation. It solves this “oxygen dilemma” by protecting the nitrogenase through Oxygen Scavenging Chemicals, specifically Leghaemoglobin a transport protein which effectively removes oxygen from module.
It also has exceptionally fast and efficient aerobic metabolism so very little Oxygen is stockpiled.

1. Chemical recognition of roots and Rhizobium
2. Root hair curling3. Formation of infection thread4. Invasion of roots by Rhizobia5. cortical cell divisions and formation of
nodule tissue6. Bacteria fix nitrogen which is
transferred to plant cells in exchange for fixed carbon

Tip of a clover root hair.
The rhizobia shown here are clustered on the surface of the root. Soon they will start to invade the roots and begin a symbiotic partnership that will benefit both organisms.

2. Root hair curling.Root hair curls to trap the colony of rhizobium.
3. Formation of infection thread to penetrate root cortex and reach vascular tissue.

form nitrogenase enzyme.
