1.1.Rhizobium japonicumstrain 505 (Wisconsin) was grown symbiotically in soybean root nodules, in liquid culture under air or 2% O2, also aerobically and anaerobically with nitrate (6 mM).2.2. Anaerobic-nitrate growth induces a haemoprotein pattern similar to but not identical with that of N2-fixing symbiotic bacteria (bacteroids). In particular, the induced cytochrome P450 has different properties.3.3. Whole bacteroids and anaerobic-nitrate cells showed high levels of nitrate reductase activity, respectively 1490 and 1240μmoles × h−1× g−1protein; nitrate reductase activity in air-grown or air-nitrate-grown cells was low, respectively 330 and 190μmoles × h−1× g−1protein. Nitrite reductase activity was detected only in anaerobic-nitrate-grown cells.4.4. It is concluded that nitrate respiration is significant in anaerobic-nitrate-grown cells, but not in air-nitrate cells or bacteroids. The characteristic haemoprotein pattern of bacteroids seems dependent on near-anaerobiosis rather than the presence of nitrate.
