Isolation of salt-sensitive mutants of Sinorhizobium meliloti strain Rm1021
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The determinants necessary for adaptation to high NaCl concentrations and competition for nodule occupancy in Sinorhizobium meliloti were investigated genetically. Mutations in fabG as well as smc02909 (transmembrane transglycosylase), trigger factor (tig) and smc00717 (probably ftsE) gave rise to strains that were unable to tolerate high salt and were uncompetitive for nodule occupancy relative to the wild-type. Moreover exoF1, exoA and pgm determinants were determined to be necessary for strain Rm1021 to survive high NaCl and/or MgCl(2) concentrations. The introduction of an expR(+) allele was capable of suppressing the Mg(2+) sensitivity associated with the exoF1, but not the exoA, mutation in a manner independent of exopolysaccharide II (EPS II)-associated mucoidy. The results also show that the EPS II-associated mucoid phenotype was affected by either Mg(2+)or K(+), but not by Li(+), Ca(2+), or high osmolarity.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
