What is Arsenic Resistance in Rhizobial Strains about?
This study identified arsenic resistance genes arsA and arsC in rhizobial strains isolated from nodules of legumes grown in soils contaminated with heavy metals and arsenic from industrial effluents. The arsC gene was found in Sinorhizobium loti, Rhizobium leguminosarum, and Mesorhizobium loti strains, representing the first identification of this gene in R. leguminosarum. The arsA gene was only identified in M. loti. These genes confer arsenic resistance through arsenate reduction and arsenite efflux, and
