Research Abstract |
This study aimed to develop a new technique for the internalization of a useful bacterium into fungal cells, contributing to microbial endosymbiosis engineering. To provide a bacterium-recipient fungus, a technique of making an endobacterium (EB)-free fungus from an EB-possessing fungus was invented. Further, an EB fraction was rtiellasuccessfully recovered from an EB-possessing soil fungus, Morea elongta and its genome sequence was determined. Biosynthetic pathway prediction revealed the lack of sulfur metabolism pathways, suggesting the strict dependence of this endobacterium on the fungus.
