“…The difference in the number of rhizobial strains yielded by soils 1 (8) and 3 (10) could be related to field management, as soil 3 has a previous history of legume cropping. Previous studies from Australia have also reported variations in the ability of grain legumes to nodulate as a result of differences in soil pH and paddock history [7]. We isolated greater numbers of bacteria in soil 2 (15), which agrees with previous reports that rhizobia, especially fast growing species, are found in higher number in fine textured, neutrals soils than in coarse textured, acid soils [2].…”

A study of symbiotic bacteria from traditional agricultural legumes from Central Spain was performed to create a collection of rhizobia from soils differing in physicochemical, analytical and/or agroecological properties which could be well-adapted to the environmental conditions of this region, and be used for sustainable agricultural practices. Thirty-six isolates were obtained from root-nodules of fifteen legume species (including Cicer arietinum, Lathyrus sativus, Lens culinaris, Lupinus spp., Medicago sativa, Phaseolus vulgaris, Pisum sativum, and Vicia spp.) from three agriculture areas with soils of different pHs and from a forest area with undisturbed soils. Phenotypical characterization revealed uniformity across the thirty-six isolates, with important exceptions in terms of environmental tolerance (three isolates survived at high temperatures, three at high salinity and three at acid pH). The molecular analysis of 16S rRNA gene showed a close relationship of twenty-nine isolates to Rhizobium leguminosarum, one to Rhizobium gallicum, one to Mesorhizobium ciceri, two to Sinorhizobium (Ensifer) meliloti and three to Bradyrhizobium canariense. The sequence analysis of a symbiosis-specific gene, nod C, showed a correlation with the plant host and grouped twenty-six isolates with Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae, establishing the diversity in relation to legume-host. The 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer (IGS) region allowed for intraspecific differentiation, so that strains with equal 16S rRNA were grouped by means of their soil origin. These results indicated that phenotypical and genetically related strains may be widely distributed in this region and that soil abiotic characteristics could have a substantial bearing on the selection of the strains living in each environment.

“…Rhizobia in their natural environments are exposed to a variety of stresses which are presently increasing due to the aridity of the soils under conditions of intensive agriculture [7]. The use of legumes in such soils requires the establishment of an effective symbiosis with rhizobia.…”

“…Nodulation might be due to the effective symbiosis between legume and rhizobial strains. Thus, the findings of this experiment is in agreement with those of Slattery et al, (2004) who reported that Rhizobium leguminosarum bv viciae is responsible for effective nodulation of faba bean, lentils and field pea. Egamberdiyeva et al, (2004) investigated the effect of inoculation with Bradyrhizobium japonicum S-2492 on soybean nodulation.…”

A pot experiment was conducted in net house to study the effect of different rhizobial strains and N fertilizer on nodulation, growth, yield, N content and its uptake by soybean cv. Shohag. Saline soil was collected from Fultala of Khulna district. The experiment was laid out in the factorial combination following completely randomized design. There were altogether 16 treatment combinations (4 inocula × 4 fertilizer levels) replicated thrice. can be used for producing higher yield and quality of soybean cv. Shohag in the salt affected soil.

Although, Trigonella plants mainly nodulate with Sinorhizobium meliloti (Roumiantseva et al 2002;You et al 2008), strains belonging to the genera Bradyrhizobium (Pandey et al 2004) and Rhizobium (Wang et al 2006;Hou et al 2009) have also been isolated from two Trigonella species in China.…”

Legume-nodulating bacteria (LNB) from three pasture legumes (Vicia sativa, Trigonella maritima and Hedysarum spinosissimum) in Tunisia

et al. 2011

Sixty-one bacterial isolates were recovered from surface-sterilized root nodules of Vicia sativa, Trigonella maritima and Hedysarum spinosissimum plants growing in two arid Tunisian soils. The natural nodulation resource of these legumes, prospected from the two sites, was investigated. The occurrence of nodulation and the morphology of the nodules were observed. The isolates were examined by phenotypic characterization and 16S rDNA analysis. Among the 61 isolates that were screened, the majority (92%) were fast-growing rhizobia. Twenty-eight strains tolerated high concentration of salt (3% NaCl) and grew at temperatures up to 40°C. PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that the majority of the isolates belonged to the genera Rhizobium (54%) and Sinorhizobium (42%). Five H. spinosissimum isolates failed to nodulate their host plant, and were affiliated to Pseudomonas and Kocuria genera. This study is the first report that describes bacteria of genus Kocuria occupying root nodules of legumes to the best of our knowledge.
