By contrast, the average G+C content of rhizobial species ranges from 57 to 65% [ 43 ] . Consistent with the average for M. incognita , the G+C content of Mi-NodL is 36%.
Unlike many prokaryotes, in which the genome resides largely on a single, circular chromosome, with varying numbers of small episomes, rhizobial genomes are typically organized in a manner conceptually more like eukaryotes.
Nod factors are a rhizobial species-specific family of lipo-chito-oligosaccharides which function in signal exchange between the bacterium and its symbiotic partner plant [ 38 ] . The first visible signs of nodule formation (root-hair deformation) as part of the symbiotic pathway are triggered by Nod factors [ 39 ] , and although the specific mechanisms of Nod factor function remain unknown, it is clear that it has a central role in initiation of cell division and possibly also nodule differentiation in the root [ 40 ] . For most rhizobia, the product of nodD acts as a transcriptional activator and induces expression of a set of nod genes.
Interestingly, examination of the colinearity and gene arrangements between S. meliloti , R. radiobacter and M. loti indicates that the location of the genes in M. loti probably represents a more primitive state [ 33 ] and is therefore more likely to reflect the proximity of these genes in rhizobial ancestral species.
Only the two operonic fusion proteins from Anabaena and Nostoc and the four rhizobial fusion proteins (Mlo, Bme, Rme and Atu) exhibit linker regions of identical length and obvious similarity.
