Control of N2 fixation and NH3 excretion in Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571

T. L. Haskett, R. Karunakaran, M. B. Batista, R. Dixon, P. Poole

This paper engineers Azorhizobium caulinodans to control N2 fixation and NH3 excretion using rhizopine-inducible systems to target nitrogen delivery to transgenic crops.

Disrupting hierarchical control of nitrogen fixation enables carbon-dependent regulation of ammonia excretion in soil diazotrophs

M. Bueno Batista, P. Brett, C. Appia-Ayme, Y.-P. Wang, R. Dixon

This study shows that a single amino acid change in NifA disrupts nitrogen fixation regulation in Azotobacter vinelandii, enabling carbon-dependent ammonia excretion.

Deep sequencing reveals Campylobacter in commercial meat chickens less than 8 days old.

F. M. Colles, S. J. Hedges, R. Dixon, S. G. Preston, P. Thornhill, K. K. Barfod, S. G. Gebhardt-Henrich, P. Creach, M. C. Maiden, M. Stamp Dawkins, A. L. Smith

The paper uses molecular methods to detect Campylobacter in young chickens, finding that most carry the bacteria before traditional culture methods can detect it.
