Abstract
In contrast to the wild type, H2 uptake-constitutive mutants of Rhizobium japonicum expressed both hydrogenase and ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase activities when grown heterotrophically. However, as bacteroids from soybean root nodules, the H2 uptake-constitutive mutants, like the wild type, did not express ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase activity.
