Genetic Regulation of Symbiosis Island Transfer in Mesorhizobium loti

The Mesorhizobium loti symbiosis island (ICEMlSymR7A) is a 500-kb mobile integrative and conjugative element (ICE) that converts non-symbiotic mesorhizobia into strains capable of forming a symbiosis with Lotus corniculatus. ICEMlSymR7A chromosomal excision and conjugative transfer is stimulated by...
