Four Rhizobium strains were isolated from berseem clover in Egypt. The symbiotically effective, salt-tolerant, strain Rhiz950 was identified as new species, Rhizobium aegypticaum sv. trifolii (USDA 7124(T)). The other three thermal- and pH-tolerant strains were identified as Rhizobium bangladeshense sv. trifolii, the type strain is USDA 7125(T).

Rhizobium sp. IRBG74 not only nodulates Sesbania cannabina but also can enhance rice growth; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not clear. Here, we show that Rhizobium sp. IRBG74 colonizes the roots of Arabidopsis thaliana, which leads to inhibition in the growth of main root but enhancement in the formation of lateral roots. The promotion of lateral root formation by Rhizobium sp...

A total of 128 strains was isolated from more than 23 legume hosts in Korea. Phylogenetic relationships between these Korean isolates and reference strains of the genera Bradyrhizobium, Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium and Sinorhizobium were analysed using their 16S rRNA gene and internally transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequences. Among the Bradyrhizobium strains, dendrograms based on both the 16S rR...

the study was designed to evaluate the impact of rhizobium bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi and iron sulfate was performed on chickpea plants. treatments rhizobium bacteria (inoculated and non-inoculated), mycorrhizal fungi (glomus mosseae, glomus intraradices and non-inoculated) and various amounts of iron sulfate fertilizer (0, 40 and 80 kg per hectare) with a factorial experiment in a randomiz...

Soybean cells in suspension culture were inhibited in their growth by mixed culture with Rhizobium japonicum 5033. Rhizobium cells had the ability to adsorb on the surface of soybean cells. Cell envelope prepared from Rhizobium by sonic oscillation inhibited the growth of soybean cells. The growth-inhibiting activity of the cell envelope was depressed by beta-glucosidase, KIO(4), urea, sodium c...

in order to study of the effects of hydro-osmo priming, bio-priming (biological fertilizer (barvar-2) and inoculation with rhizobium japonicum bacteria) on growth & yield of dpx cultivar of soybean (glycine max l.), an experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 4 replications in agriculture research station of shahrood university of technolog...

Background: Effectiveness of Rhizobium inoculation is determined by common bean genotypes. Environmental factors also affect common bean genotypes-Rhizobium-symbiosis. The effect of common bean genotypes-Rhizobium strains-environment interaction on nodulation and common bean production is not well studied. Three genotypes (Dursitu, Gofta, and Kufanzik) and eight selected isolates of common bean...

Trichoderma asperellum has been fronted as a biocontrol agent of root-knot nematodes on tomato and French beans in Kenya. Research on the effect of T. asperellum on growth of Rhizobium species is lacking yet the two interact within the rhizosphere particularly when T. asperellum is applied as a biocontrol agent. Legume roots and Rhizobium species have symbiotic relationship resulting in biologi...
