Summary: Bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas consume preferred carbon substrates in nearly reverse order to that of enterobacteria, and this process is controlled by RNA-binding translational repressors and regulatory ncRNA antagonists. However, their roles in microbe-plant interactions and the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain. Here we show that root-associated diazotrophic Pseudomonas stutzeri A1501 preferentially catabolizes succinate, followed by the less favorable substrate citrate, and ultimately glucose. Furthermore, the Hfq/Crc/CrcZY regulatory system orchestrates this preference and contributes to optimal nitrogenase activity and efficient root colonization. Hfq has a central role in this regulatory network through different mechanisms of action, including repressing the translation of substrate-specific catabolic genes, activating the nitrogenase gene nifH posttranscriptionally, and exerting a positive effect on the transcription of an exopolysaccharide gene cluster. Our results illustrate an Hfq-mediated mechanism linking carbon metabolism to nitrogen fixation and root colonization, which may confer rhizobacteria competitive advantages in rhizosphere environments. |
