Role of glutathione in the growth of <i>Bradyrhizobium</i> sp. (peanut microsymbiont) under different environmental stresses and in symbiosis with the host plant
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) plays an important role in the defence of microorganisms and plants against different environmental stresses. To determine the role of GSH under different stresses, such as acid pH, saline shock, and oxidative shock, a GSH-deficient mutant (Bradyrhizobium sp. 6144-S7Z) was obtained by disruption of the gshA gene, which encodes the enzyme gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase. Growth of the mutant strain was significantly reduced in liquid minimal saline medium, and the GSH content was very low, about 4% of the wild-type level. The defect, caused by disruption of the gshA gene in the growth of mutant strain, cannot be reversed by the addition of GSH (up to 100 micromol/L) to the liquid minimal saline medium, and the endogenous GSH level was approximately the same as that observed without the addition of GSH. In contrast, the wild-type strain increased the GSH content under these conditions. However, the growth of the mutant strain in a rich medium (yeast extract--mannitol) increased, suggesting that at least some but not all of the functions of GSH could be provided by peptides and (or) amino acids. The symbiotic properties of the mutant were similar to those found in the wild-type strain, indicating that the mutation does not affect the ability of the mutant to form effective nodules.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
