A PilZ-Containing Chemotaxis Receptor Mediates Oxygen and Wheat Root Sensing in Azospirillum brasilense

Chemotactic bacteria sense environmental changes via dedicated receptors that bind to extra- or intracellular cues and relay this signal to ultimately alter direction of movement toward beneficial cues and away from harmful environments. In complex environments, such as the rhizosphere, bacteria mus...
