A recently proposed microscopic version of the Bohr-Mottelson collective model, defined by the following dynamical symmetry chain 
of the proton-neutron symplectic model (PNSM), is applied to the microscopic shell-model description of the low-lying collective excitations in two transitional nuclei, namely 
Ru and 
Os. Detailed shell-model results are presented for the excitation levels of the ground and 
bands in Ru, and the ground, , and 
bands in Os, as well as for the probability distributions and the quadrupole collectivity. A good overall description is obtained for the excitation energies of the bands under consideration for the two transitional nuclei without using an adjustable kinetic-energy term, as well as for the ground state intraband B(E2) quadrupole collectivity and the known interband B(E2) transition probabilities between the low-lying collective states without the use of an effective charge.
