• Enzyme-specific profiles for genome annotation: PRIAM. (2003, methodology): “These 1460 predicted proteins correspond to 660 different enzyme activities, emphasizing the extent of paralogy in the S.meliloti genome as observed earlier (28) (see http://genopole.toulouse.inra.fr/bioinfo/ priam/).”
• Advances in Rhizobium Research (2002, background): “Interestingly, in some strains the genetic information located on plasmids is not confined to plasmids in other strains (Haugland and Verma, 1981; Galibert et al., 2001).”
• Global mapping of transcription start sites and promoter motifs in the symbiotic α-proteobacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti 1021 (2013, neutral): “To adapt to environmental changes or stress situations, S. meliloti can draw on a set of 15 σ factors [20,23].”
• Transcriptomic Insight in the Control of Legume Root Secondary Infection by the Sinorhizobium meliloti Transcriptional Regulator Clr (2017, background): “Seven genes belong to a large ca. 30-kb cluster on pSymB between genes nodP2 and smb21248 that contains many genes involved in polysaccharide metabolism (see S. meliloti genome browser1), (Galibert et al., 2001).”
• Plant phenolics: recent advances on their biosynthesis, genetics, and ecophysiology. (2013, background): “Rhizobium genes involved in symbiosis are often localized in plasmids or chromosomal blocks as is the case for Sinorhizobium meliloti, where the genes involved in the synthesis of factors of nodulation (nod, dol, Noah) and fixation of nitrogen (nif and nix) are located on the pSymA plasmid [143].”
• The Symbiotic Requirements of Different Medicago Spp. Suggest the Evolution of Sinorhizobium Meliloti and S. Medicae with Hosts Differentially Adapted to Soil pH (2005, background): “This has implications for the use of its genome sequence information (Galibert et al., 2001), and raises the issue of the necessity to sequence the genome of other medic-nodulating strains.”
• Genome sequence of the dissimilatory metal ion–reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis (2002, neutral): “oneidensis compared with other environmental bacteri”
