- "Nucleotide sequence and predicted functions of the entire Sinorhizobium meliloti pSymA megaplasmid"
- I used GoogleScholar and entered into the search bar, "Sinorhizobium meliloti".
- In this article, the authors conclude that Sinorhizobium meliloti contains nucleotide sequences characteristic of nitrogen fixating bacteria. They confirm this conclusion through sequencing the nucleotides of Sinorhizobium meliloti and determining the subsequent proteins that illicit a particular function.
- There was a total of 16,800 results.
- This article was published in 2001, so quite a while has passed since, but I think that the results are still fairly relevant. The researchers identified the function of certain genes in Sinorhizobium meliloti, which is information that will never be outdated, but may be improved with further details of the specific function.
- Record the full bibliographic citation of the relevant paper(s), formatted according to the Guidelines for Literature Citations in a Scientific Paper.
- [[1]]
- [[2]]
- Use the genome sequencing article you found to perform a prospective search in the ISI Web of Science/Knowledge database.
- Give an overview of the results of the search.
- How many results did you get?
- Based on the titles and abstracts of the papers, what type of research directions have been taken now that the genome for that organism has been sequenced?
- What experiment was performed?
- What was the "treatment" and what was the "control" in the experiment?
- Were replicate experiments of the "treatment" and "control" conditions conducted?
- Were these biological or technical replicates?
- How many of each?
- "The complete sequence of the 1,683-kb pSymB megaplasmid from the N2-fixing endosymbiont Sinorhizobium meliloti"
- I used GoogleScholar and entered into the search bar, "Sinorhizobium meliloti".
- The article outlines the entire sequence of the specific strain of N2-fixing endosymbiont Sinorhizobium meliloti.
- There was a total of 16,800 results.
- This article was also published in 2001, so again, the results had not been published recently, but the information it offers is still very much applicable to present day research as well.
- Record the full bibliographic citation of the relevant paper(s), formatted according to the Guidelines for Literature Citations in a Scientific Paper.
