“…Estimation of the relative quantity of the cells attached to wheat seedling roots during their 2-h incubation with a bacterial suspension (calculated on unit mass of root) was done by using a radioisotopic analysis (Solovova et al, 1994). Experiments on agglutination of a carrot cell suspension induced by bacterial adhesion were carried out according to a standard procedure (Matthysse et al, 1981).…”

Immunization of rabbits with glutar aldehyde-treated intact Azospirillum cells results in the production of antibodies specific mainly with regard to the cell O-antigens. EPS, CPS, and 0-specific polysaccharides of A. brasilense Sp 7 are antigenically identical. Pre-treatment of the wheat seedling roots and a carrot cell suspension with LPS of strain Sp 245 promotes significantly bacterial adhesion to wheat roots and Azospirillum-induced agglutination of carrot cells. It also leads to an increased synthesis of the major proteins in the wheat root apoplast, which is comparable with the plant response to inoculation with whole cells. This may be explained by an active effect of Azospirillum LPS on the receptor systems of plant cells.

“…In this case, however, no direct involvement of the LPS in the process of bacterial attachment to plant tissues was revealed (Smit et at., 1989). On the other hand, bacterial LPS are known to participate actively in the contact interactions of some pathogenic agrobacteria with plant cells (Whatley et at., 1976;Matthysse et at., 1978).…”
