Fluorescent pseudomonads harboring type III secretion genes are enriched in the mycorrhizosphere of Medicago truncatula

Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) of Gram-negative bacteria mediate direct interactions with eukaryotic cells. Pseudomonas spp. harboring T3SS genes (T3SS+) were previously shown to be more abundant in the rhizosphere than in bulk soil. To discriminate the contribution of roots and associated arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on the enrichment of T3SS+ fluorescent pseudomonads in the rhizosphere of Medicago truncatula, their frequency was assessed among pseudomonads isolated from mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal roots and from bulk soil. T3SS genes were identified by PCR targeting a conserved hrcRST DNA fragment. Polymorphism of hrcRST in T3SS+ isolates was assessed by PCR-restriction fragm…

Influence du système de sécrétion de type III bactérien dans les intéractions plantes-Pseudomonas spp. fluorescents non pathogènes

http://prodinra.inra.fr/record/271693SPEEAEcolDurCT3; L’objectif de cette thèse a été de contribuer à faire progresser les connaissances sur les interactions bénéfiques entre les plantes et les microorganismes en évaluant la contribution des systèmes de sécrétion de type III (SST3). Une synthèse des connaissances disponibles relatives aux SST3 chez les Pseudomonas non pathogènes, saprotrophes ou mutualistes, montre que les SST3 ne sont pas cantonnés aux interactions parasites ou pathogènes avec les plantes. Dans la première étude expérimentale, nous avons utilisé différents génotypes de Medicago truncatula Gaertn. cv. Jemalong capables (Myc+) ou non (Myc-) d’établir une symbiose mycorhizien…
