Example sentences for: loti

How can you use “loti” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Rhizobia have the ability to transfer genes horizontally to other bacteria, and M. loti carries a 'symbiosis island' which spans approximately 9% of its genome and has been shown to have a role in rhizobial evolution via HGT [ 46 ] . This symbiosis island contains certain genes involved in nodulation and nitrogen-fixation functions, but none of these is a homolog of the nematode HGT candidates we have identified.
Strikingly, the nematode protein has greatest similarity (56% amino-acid identity) to GSI from the rhizobial bacterium, Mesorhizobium loti , including conservation of Tyr397.
Together with the L-threonine aldolase homolog candidate, these three genes are found within 257 kb of each other, a distance that represents only 3.65% of the M. loti chromosome, which is less than half the size of the symbiosis island.
Of the 1,923 COGs (clusters of orthologous groups) [ 32, 33, 34] identified in P. aeruginosa (a gamma-proteobacterium), 80% are also found in the combined group containing Mesorhizobium loti and Caulobacter crescentus (both alpha-proteobacteria).
The fusion is present in the cluster that includes Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Rhizobium loti, Brucella melitensis, Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Sinorhizobium meliloti.
