We find that Rhizobium forms nodules on the roots of leguminous plants. Also Frankia another microbe forms nitrogen fixing nodules on the roots of non-leguminous plant Alnus. (a) Can we artificially induce the property of nitrogen-fixation in a plant, leguminous or non-leguminous?
(b) What kind of relationship is observed between mycorrhiza and pine trees?
(c) Is it necessary for a microbe to be in close association with a plant to provide mineral nutrition? Explain with the help of one example.

(a) Artificial induction in leguminous and non-leguminous plants have been tried by scientists. It’s success rate is very low because gene expression is highly specific phenomenon.
Even if desired gene is introduced, it may not work because conditions for its expressions are very specific.
(b) Symbiotic mutualistic relationship (mutualism) is found between the pine roots and mycorrhiza as both are benefitted mutually.
(c) Yes, microbe has to be in close association, to develop a physical relationship for example Rhizobium gets into the root and involve root tissues, then only helps in nitrogen-fixation.

Animal studies Ethan is a 7-week-old Rottweiler puppy that has been with his new family for 3 days. The client contacted the clinic at 8 am this morning to make an appointment for 10 am for Ethan's first vaccination. When talking to the client upon arrival at the clinic, his family comments to you that Ethan has been quiet and sad for the last 24 hours with a small amount of diarrhea produced at 10 am yesterday and 3 am this morning. There are no notes about his illness on the appointment, but the client is sure they mentioned that he had some runny poo. The puppy didn't eat well this morning and vomited some water up. His owners think he looks a bit brighter today, but you see a lethargic puppy with a very sad demeanor. You question them some more and discover that the diarrhea was quite bloody and that Ethan is currently unvaccinated. Ethan passes a small amount of bloody diarrhea on the floor while you are talking. You are worried about parvovirus. How will you set up the isolation area for Ethan to ensure that no cross-contamination can occur, and demarcate the isolation area from the main clinic areas? Insert Answer 8) Ethan is to stay for at least 48 hours in the isolation ward. How will you ensure rodents were not attracted to the area? Why would this be important? Insert Answer 9) What could have been done to improve the control of infection? Ensure you reference your suggestions back to AVA biosecurity guidelines. Insert Answer 10) After Ethan is discharged, how would you clean the isolation ward? Think about waste disposal, laundering the bedding, cleaning the cages and benches, and floor. Also, include details on cleaning and storing your equipment afterward, and how you would report any damage you identified while cleaning. Insert Answer
