Diversity of nitrogen-fixing bacteria and the nitrogen-fixation activity was investigated in Tuber magnatum, the most well-known prized species of Italian white truffle. Degenerate PCR primers were applied to amplify the nitrogenase gene nifH from T. magnatum ascomata at different stages of maturation. Putative amino acid sequences revealed mainly the presence of Alphaproteobacteria belonging to Bradyrhizobium spp. and expression of nifH genes from Bradyrhizobia was detected. The nitrogenase activity evaluated by acetylene reduction assay was 0.5-7.5 mu mol C(2)H(4)h(-1)g(-1), comparable with early nodules of legumes associated with specific nitrogen-fixing bacteria. This is the first demonstration of nitrogenase expression gene and activity within truffle. (C) 2010 The British Mycological Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
