A mutation in the ilvC gene of Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021 determines a symbiotically defective phenotype, ilvC mutants obtained from different S. meliloti wild-type strains are able to induce root hair deformation on alfalfa roots and show variable activation of the common nodulation genes nodABC, All of these mutants are noninfective. The presence of extra copies of nodD3-syrM in an IlvC(-) background does not promote nod expression but allows the detection of low levels of Nod factor production. The sulphation of the Nod factor metabolites, however, is not affected. Furthermore, IlvC(-) strains induce a specific pattern of starch accumulation on alfalfa roots as well as of early nodulin expression Hence, the pleiotropic action of the ilvC gene in S. meliloti may reveal novel complexities involved in the symbiotic interaction.
