Nodulation (nod) genes are required forRhizobium melilotito invade and stimulate nodule formation in its host, alfalfa. We have established the DNA sequence ofnodD, nodA, andnodB, which are part of a gene cluster located 20 kb downstream ofnifHDKon theR. melilotipSym megaplasmid. ThenodDopen reading frame (308 amino acids) reads from proximal tonifHDKtoward distal tonifHDK, divergently fromnodA(196 aa) andnodB(217 aa). These two genes read from distal tonifHDKtoward proximal, and are just upstream from the previously defined open reading frame fornodC. Fourteen Tn5insertion sites have been sequenced innodD, nodA, andnodB, revealing no major hotspots for insertion, but an overall preference for G/C bases at positions 1 and 9 of the 9-bp repeat.
